Is it wrong to leave for your mental health?

Question

Married with two young kids who are starting to pick up on depression and mood changes around partner.

Answer

Depends a lot on the situation.
I have depression. I wouldn’t leave my husband or children because of it. I went to therapy and now I’m on antidepressants. You can manage mental illness without leaving your family. 
If you’re being abused by your spouse which is causing your struggles, that’s a different situation and yes, you should absolutely leave and take your kids with you.

Answer

Depends on whether or not you can get the proper help while in the relationship or not

Answer

Currently in the process of this. I’ve spoken with multiple doctors, and was even on anti-depressants for a while. All to find out that I’m depressed because, I’m a nutshell, my husband sucks and our relationship is super toxic. I would gently suggest talking to a doctor before making any decisions if it has to do with depression and mood, because if an anti-depressant can help, then great. But sometimes people just aren’t meant to be together, and you’re healthier outside that relationship, and that’s okay too.

Answer

I did! Best thing I did for myself. I was young dumb and blind in love with my EX for 10yrs. I loved him more than myself sometimes. Now I'm married to a wonderful man whom I love with every breath in my body and ttc.🥰

Answer

Maybe try and get them some help before you jump straight to leaving . Depression isn’t something you can just turn off . And if the partner is the parent of the children they are still going to be around them . And up and leaving would probably only make the depression worse .
