Feeling really sad

I really don't know what to do about this, but I've been feeling so out of whack and sad recently. Dh and I are fighting almost every day, and while our situation sucks, I know there's more going on behind it. I do believe that I am depressed and I want so badly to get out of it. 

    I'm so torn because half of the time I'm really upset at DH. He sleeps late almost every day, he hasn't been searching as actively for a job as I'd like him to and I just want some sign that we're gonna move forward in life. The other half of the time I'm sad because I realize that he's sleeping late partly because he's been trying to stay up until 4am to do ds's 2nd nightly feeding because he knows how much I work and how exhausted I am.

  I really had thought this was behind me. I had anxiety problems before, and had been on wellbutrin xr and ativan. Both had worked really well together, and I started feeling like I didn't need it anymore. I weaned myself off the wellbutrin first, then the ativan right before I got pregnant. It's so frustrating to be having these issues again. 

  Thank you guys, it does feel good to get this all out.

    I know how you fee. I use ativan & zoloft and still feel down. I also fight daily with my DH.

     Have you tried counseling? I see a therapist and it helps somewhat.
