Scenario

When surgical recovery includes mental health challenges for the whole family

My husband's post-surgery depression is affecting our whole family and we're all trying to be patient and supportive but we're also exhausted and resentful sometimes. We love him but we don't know how to take care of ourselves while taking care of him.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Recovery depression ripples through relationships, requiring care for both the individual and the system.
