Hello, The brief description provided by you here is highly suggestive of a depressive episode. However it would be unwise to comment further about the precise nature of problem. However what can and must be said is that it is definitely correct that she needs help. You should consult with a psychiatrist near you at the earliest. Most worrying aspect of your description are the suicidal ideation and she must be attended to at the earliest. In the meantime be supportive and be around her most of the time and keep talking to her. Do not let her feel lonely.. such small steps and gestures can go a long way in helping her and you.. Best wishes for your health and future.. once again I would strongly recommend that she and you meet a psychiatrist near you at the earliest..

Hi. From what you have mentioned, it seems that your wife is suffering from symptoms of depression. Considering the fact that she is having suicidal tendencies too, you should get her to consult a psychiatrist without any delay. Treatment with medications and psychotherapy will help her recover.
