You are not a failure. He is failing you by not recognizing the classic signs of clinical depression and getting you the help you need and being the husband that you need. I'm with Susan Cody, who commented below. Take full advantage of the internet and seek out counselling and psychiatric resources in your area. I would highly recommend getting books on depression by Mary Southerland. While her books are from a Christian perspective, she's struggled with clinical depression most of her life and has become an amazing speaker. I had the opportunity of hearing her talk about her experience and then hold an extra session after the main teaching just for those who had questions about depression. I think her resources could be of great encouragement to you.
