A short extra entry to question no doubt most answers will came across get the hell out of there, We have seperated a number of times before and we always get back together because I see her as a person with a moderate to heavy level of Depression and Anxierty that for some reason makes me feel like i should be doing more to help her but this is of course futile,
Should I be asking my self (seriously) what is in me that feels the need to attempt to change or move the stagnate my meaning being I know i will never change her and i know the saying "God give me the strength to identify the things i can"t change and the wisdom etc"
This is really damaging my life as i know this is having a detremental effect on my emotional well being i feel as a strong minded male that what i am living if it where some other male i would think that he lacked fibre and was a bit of a joke,
Not that I don"t feel empathy toward others it"s just not a manly thing to do from my up bringing..

If you re-read what you wrote, you pretty much answered your own question.... I am not someone with a degree, but I am sure someone who is would say your an "enabler", but at the same token, I think you genuinely care or it wouldn't bother you so much. Someone who wouldn't give a crap would have split, and that's it. And there are plenty of people like that. So I suppose you will have to decide one day, one way or another. And since I think you do care, it'll be hard. But, it is something you just may HAVE to do for your own happiness. I think if suggesting counseling for your wife, or she has and doesn't follow through, etc. then you may not have any other option. You can't spend your life in "chaos". You will end up an old man one day, bitter you gave up the best years of your life.....
If you have children, she needs to be in some sort of Doctor care/Medication/Counseling, something, if the Depression and/or Anxiety could harm or effect the kids badly......good luck to you....

Sometimes chronic lying is a symptom of childhood abuse, especially if she lies about stupid stuff that doesn't matter. She might need therapy.

You mean your wife is a "dreadful liar."

A lyre is a musical instrument.

You even wrote "dreadful" wrong.
