The People involved & Why I'm doing this

My name is Chris.  I'm married to Robin.  We have 2 kids (Josie & Archie). I'm starting this blog and documenting some of the things that are going on in my family, mostly my wife.  Why?  Because she is suffering from a Mental Illness that most people in our lives have no idea to what level it has taken a toll on her or what is going on.  I see the worst of it daily.  Robin lives it daily.  Our kids probably know something is going on, mainly because of how they have distanced themselves from her.  Her best friend knows a lot.  Her sisters know very little, but they know she has been on medication.

Robin has been pretty silent since the Monday "hurting herself incident". I went to work. She went to work. On Wednesdays, she often stops be a little Church in Safety Harbor that's near the library where she works. They have a Wednesday service. It's a small group of people. Robin has become friendly with some of them. I'm really happy she goes to this service. I've gone a couple times with her, but she almost seems annoyed that I'm there with her, like I'm infringing on her personal quiet time. So I haven't gone in awhile. I've asked her the last few weeks via text "Are you going to church tonight?" When she replies "yes", I usually do a happy face back, or say something like "I'm glad you are still going" as words of encouragement. Well, I guess that's not how it was received. Today when I asked, she answered, but immediately said she didn't want me to respond with any of that.
