Suggest Treatment For Depression

I know im depressed but don't know what category of depression that explains how I feel. Im a housewife and have a hard time finding a job right now. not only that but I get overwhelming thoughts that my husband may not love me or dosnt listen to me when I feel sad. I get gelious of other wemon when were out or even his ex when she comes to pick up their daughter. im afraid of loosing him or everything I guess . he gets mad because he says I worry to much and I need to stop my geliousy. ive been married for 2 yrs now and before that I was a single mom with a full time job before I moved far away to get married and since that havnt had luck with work. we live on a small farm and I feel tired and the same thing everyday because I don't feel like things are organized and I cant keep the house clean because nobody puts things back where they got it or alwys dragging dirt on the floors, I feel useless cause I cant help with financial matters and I feel like im sloppy and afraid to loose my husbands love, id do anything for him but I don't know what to do with how I feel. I love my husband but hes not a very good listener to how I may feel

Thanks for putting up your query in HCM.I have gone through your case in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
If I had similar patient visiting my clinic i would have started her with low dose antidepressant like Fluoxetine, Escitalopram, Venlafaxine etc which are all safe and can be continued for 6 to 8 months before tapering off and stopping.Also ,I would have given option of CBT(cognitive behaviour therapy) in which i wuld have taken 15 to 20 mins sessions per week and would have required 8 to 10 sessions.
Hope I was able to answer your query.If you have any further query please dont hesitate to ask.
Regards
