Wife has environmental depression due to still born son. how can we "change her environment" so that she's no

Question

not depressed anymore?

Answer 1

I am so sorry for your loss. Ask her if she thinks moving would help. Try to get her out of the house as much as you can. I hope she's on some kind of medication to help her deal with this.

Answer 2

Not sure what environmental depression is. I had a still born baby and the things that helped me where talking about this child that will never be. Stay way from ppl that stay stupid things like it happened for a reason or you will have another baby some day. Don't try to rush her through her grief. Everyone grieves at a different pace. Don't let ppl tell you to get over it and move on, because that just doesn't happen. Good luck if your marriage can survive the death of a child it can survive anything. Feel free to email me or have your wife email me. You two have a long road a head of you.

The 14th modification: "All persons born or naturalized interior u . s . of america, AND undertaking TO THE JURISDICTION THEREOF, are electorate of u . s . of america and the state wherein they stay." As unlawful extraterrestrial beings are, with the help of definition, interior the rustic illegally, they do no longer look to be undertaking to jurisdiction. subsequently, neither are any toddlers born right here to unlawful extraterrestrial beings and don't meet the factors for citizenship below the 14th modification. BTW. The shape has in basic terms been amended 27 cases via fact that its inception. And it has survived lots longer than the different national shape. The shape works, yet human beings ought to easily examine it a while.

Answer 4

I'm sorry about the loss of your baby. Depression would be totally normal after such a loss. Your wife needs time to grieve. Be there for her and ask her if she thinks a counselor and/or medication would help.

Answer 5

You can only be supportive to the fact that you both have lost a baby ,but, be even more aware that her attachment was greater than yours as she carried your child in her womb, therefore she hasn't just lost a child but also a part of her that was still attached to her body.

I don't know whither Ti's your first child but if that is so then her loss would be greater as her expectations would have been higher. It would be most likely she will be going through low self esteem and blaming herself or even saying "Why me?"

Whatever you do, don't dis acknowledge the fact you both had a child that died by totally removing everything you had acquired for the baby as that would just add fuel to the fire. A Mother would take offense to removing everything that would have a connection to the child and see it as you denying it ever existed or trying to erase it like a bad memory and in doing that would lower her sense of self worth. Ti's alright to keep a few things but to drown yourself in it would just be making a giant Shrine which will constantly be in your face.

If it were me in trying to help a friend recover from it I would just be there constantly giving positive affirmations and ensuring them that they had no control over the situation. Find a support network that deals with Still born loss not just for her but for both of you as your attendance will just reassure her that you are there and you can also help yourself as well. Seek medical advice if it becomes chronic.

Be Patient; things take time to heal and sometimes quick fixes are not the best solutions. Quick fixes are like cosmetic surgery and just covers up the nasties but in time will resurface so if she needs to express herself emotionally (within reason) let her go for it.Ti's better to express than suppress because if she holds everything inside sooner or later she will explode. She may even need help talking to someone else other than family as sometimes we tend not to say how we feel to those we love just in case we think we hurt them so we say nothing.

You need to help her Physically, Spiritually, Mentally and Emotionally in order for her to overcome this.
I believe you are her best medicine but if you find you need the extra support find it, it is out there for the both of you.

My condolences to you both as well as my wishes that things will become better. By the way, sorry for the novel. *looks at her post and blushes*

Answer 6

Give her the time to work through the stages of loss of the baby. If it continues more than a month, she needs to see a doctor for medication help.

The environment probably includes all the furniture, clothing, toys that you had planned for the baby. Sit down and talk of putting it in storage for now and bringing it out in the future.

Answer 7

I lost my child to a wrongful death on Columbus Day (October 14), 2002, and then lost the two grandbabies I'd assisted in raising as co-parent to their biological (violent) fathers in two separate states. On the surface, one would assume despair is (and was) my only option...I lost my family trying to save my daughter from trauma when she fled to the east coast to escape injustice and the aftermaths of severe violence. [Massachusetts, we found, is a family-UNfriendly state that drove my dear daughter to an early death same as if they'd held shotguns to her head and heart and pulled the triggers.] Instead, I FORCED myself to take a comedy club workshop with young people half my age or younger whose idea of trauma or tragedy was having a parent yell at them. By doing this, I was compelled to balance the depths of my despair in context of an improvisational group activity that rendered my pathos irrelevant. In other words, I had to reach deep and search for a response pattern that assisted those around me to complete the acting assignments. I also was aided by the knowledge (proven in science) that ENERGY NEVER DIES. Your baby and my beloved child live on in energy, transformed into loving and lovely elements that are ever present in and around us. There is tremendous comfort in knowing this. The environment must actually change WITHIN your wife, but sometimes taking the paths less traveled in life will help in the process. Do things you've never done before or in ways you've never done before, because new brain cells form, and soon you begin to sense a rebirth in spirit and energy. I know this from personal experience, and I am truly blessed. I hope this helps.

Answer 8

Environmental depression??? How is that when she just lost a child? I would get a second opinion quickly.

Answer 9

Things like this take time. Be loving and supportive to her. Ask her what she thinks she needs to make herself feel better.
