Hello,
It seems your wife is suffering from depression. Feeling sad, irritable, having sleep disturbances are all symptoms of depression. Most probably, she will need anti-depressants which will take care of her problems. Since most of the anti-depressants take a bit of time to show effect, she can be given some benzodiazepine in the initial phase of the treatment. As a psychiatrist, I would however strongly advise against any self-medication and would suggest to meet a local psychiatrist as soon as possible.
Best Wishes
