How to comfort your depressed wife?

[Countryboy2021]

I can't make her happy no matter what I do I always ask her what she wants she says she doesn't know. I feel so I'm a bad husband because I can't help her. She said she doesn't want help she only wants me all she does is cry which really hurts me I love her so much I'm worried she's gonna end up hurting herself. I've been with her for 2 years we been married for a month before this virus started she use to be so happy I don't know what made her this way I hate seeing my baby girl so sad knowing there's nothing I can do for her. How can I comfort her through this? What should I say to her?

A few things that can help with depression

1 - A gratitude journal once a month - where you write 70 things that make you lucky - like "lucky to have running water when people in third world countries walk 5 km to get water." "lucky to have warm water when some countries only have cold." "lucky I get to choose from hundreds of foods from the grocery store when some farmers in China can only choose from 5." "better off with a lap top and fridge than the victorian queens were in the 1800s without our calibre of dental care and flu medicine despite owning over half the world." etc... then donate some money to help somebody worse off than you - find the poorest country and poorest person you can find and give them some money and do it in secret.

2 - Praying makes you or her or anybody feel better. Pick a person who has been unfairly treated in life and resolve in your mind that you will secretly pray for that person until they recover from their problems - find somebody with emotional problems or a combination of emotional and physical problems and pray secret blessings over them. If that does not work - find 20 people and spend 3 minutes praying for all of them one after another and do it in secret.

3 - Doing something productive might make you or her or anybody feel better. Try working out - possibly to music - or doing a religious fast - if avoiding food is too difficult - try eating wasabi paste or raw garlic as your fast instead of food deprivation or bathing in very cold water - you could resolve to walk for 8-10 hours in one day and do it twice in one week - one thing that makes me happy is walking 32 km a day on a vacation, the pain of walking is a form of healthy pain that is good and not bad for you. I know a guy who copes with his depression by doing wood working projects - he builds parade floats or furniture for a fee and he also does his own personal home decorating by building his own table or shelf and painting it himself. Other habits could be bird watching or photography or portrait painting, offering to do portraits could also be a good way of networking and making friends.

Simple

Look there are a lot of factor. But if you have done your very best and truthful effort and yet it did not work, then it is her problem. As long as you are not convinced you did your very best, then keep try anything you wish.
Every woman are different and everyone expressed their needs and talk in different ways. So you have to understand the need of your partner and how she talks.

Depression is super low energy, no positive crap is gonna do, cus its too far. Closes thing to raise energy, is to get angry and in fight mode. Get pissed on that thing that deprsses you. And fight back, thrn after that u can start feeling positive again
