I will be okay eventually

So my doc has me on Zoloft, 200 mg a day. They come in 100mg tabs so I take two tabs. I was taking both tabs in the mornings but it was making me so tired, so i started taking both in the evening, and that still wasn't working for me. My sister-in-law suggested i take them the way she does (she is taking the exact amount of zoloft as me) one in the morning and one in the evening. I feel so much better now. I feel like myself. I still hate that I have to take medication to feel "normal" but i know that its for the best. I know without it I battle sever anger depression and anxiety. I still have issues with my anxiety so i intend to speak to my doctor this week about that, i'm just so glad i'm not feeling angry and depressed all the time. It isn't a fix all though. My marriage is still struggling, just glad he finally agreed to see a doctor about his issues as well. He has finally admitted that he needs to see a doc and that is a big step for him. I feel as if our marriage is going to completely fall apart if seeing the doc and getting help doesn't fix things. He is angry, depressed, antisocial, impotent, battles anxiety, carpel tunnel and arthritis and he is just so damn miserable all the time. He acts like me and the kids aren't what he wants in life. If his doc helps is depressions and other issues and he still acts like me and the kids aren't what he wants in life then i'll have no choice but to walk. We have been together 8 years and i love him but i won't stay where we are not wanted. That will just make for a miserable life our children and for us. We all deserve to be happy. He doesn't even sleep in our bed anymore. I leave a blanket on the couch for him now because i know that is where he would rather sleep. I hope things get better but if not its ok, i'll be ok, eventually.
