How does one cope with a spouse who is mentally ill who has been diagnosed with Depression Anxiety and OCD?
When a relationship is built it was near one who knows the other very well. Depression Anxiety and OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) never occur overnight nor do they suddenly reach such a stage where the brain stops thinking by itself. When GOD created human beings, I mean when the first seed of human embryo starts growing, its the brain that starts developing first and later on other parts start developing. For the person who suffers from Depression Anxiety, its very important to know them, try to understand what situation or tension he or she is experiencing. Maybe such a person might have gone through such situations or accidents which has led him/her to become ill with depression. Try to understand the person and the ways that can be found to help with love, support and gentleness.
AnswerAn important thing to know is the reasons behind why these conditions develop. Research as much as you can about the low levels of brain chemicals and other factors that cause them. That will help to create a situation where you are looking at the behavior caused by the depression as being a third party that you both can deal with, rather directing animosity toward your spouse. They are in no condition to deal objectively with conflict or even small stresses that wouldn't bother them if well. All of this is easier said than done! Don't feel a failure if you find it impossible not to react or despair. Create support networks for yourself, either with understanding friends or one of the support groups for people in just the same situation. It helps so much just knowing you are not alone. Be assured that the medications usually have wonderful success now, although this can take time to work, depending on how much the chemical levels have to be built up. Protect your spouse -and yourself too- from situations that are stressful, and that includes the rellies and friends who think it's just a matter of 'pulling yourself together'.

How can one leave their mentally abusive spouse and not have to worry about losing their 2 kids to the spouse?
If you can prove that he's been mentally abusive (statements and letters from friends or family would help) then it would be up to a judge to decide whether the children should be subjected to a mentally abusive father. By the way, there are some who believe that allowing children to witness the physical or mental abuse between parents is actually a form of child abuse.

What do you want to do? The will is valid. Depression does not invalidate it, and the spouse is a natural heir.

What are symptoms of depression?
The depression symptoms are eating too much, tired, angry, upset, sad, not able to complete a task, gaining weight and not being able to interact with your family or spouse.
How do you react towards your spouse telling you they have depression if they didn't tell you before your marriage?
Try and be supportive. What if your spouse had told you he/she had diabetes? People with depression should be given the same respect and support that any other ill person receives. I understand that you'd prefer to have known everything before you made the decision to marry, but consider this...is depression worth coming between you or can you love him/her despite it?
If your spouse is depressed would that explain why he does not seem to love you anymore?
Yes, depression could very much explain why your spouse may seem to be acting differently toward you. Depression makes it hard to feel the joy of love. If it's a real clinical depression, that means there is a chemical imbalance in their brain -- a real mental illness -- that affects their emotions. It's not all in their head, or in yours. If they act erractically, it could be bi-polar disorder (manic depression). Your spouse needs help. He needs you. Convince them to seek a psychiatrist (not a therapist, who is not a doctor and cannot prescribe medicine). The doctor will need you there to hear about his symptoms.
Why do people commit crimes of passion- what is mentally going on at the time of the crime?
Crimes of passion are usually an "on the spot" occurrence. Many times, the person is devastated, infuriated or frightened and, due to these emotions, they act. You see this sometimes when a spouse cheats on their significant other. When the other spouse finds out, they can act and kill their spouse or the person they cheated on them with. It's sad, but it happens.
