## Resource

A wife, a counselor herself, is drowning in frustration as her husband—married ten years—refuses to engage in therapy, spirals into control and isolation, and sabotages his job and family life. His depression and anxiety have turned into a toxic cycle, leaving his kids emotionally neglected and her own mental health at risk. Abby delivers a no-nonsense ultimatum: he must commit to real help—or she must prioritize her and the kids’ well-being by leaving. And she reminds her: don’t forget to get your own support.
