My husband shows no interest in me and won’t talk about it

It's as if you are in some sort of subconscious prison and I want you to escape, says Philippa Perry

The question I've been with my husband for 22 years. Ten years ago, I suffered depression. My doctor said it was nothing and dismissed me.

My husband showed no interest in me, we barely talked or had sex, I'd try to get his attention with meals or looking nice, and he'd get angry and tell me all was fine and why did I wear my depression like a badge of honour? At times, I felt suicidal.
