I am so sorry dear @sriddle1 to hear this : (((. I do not have enough experience to help with the answer , just wanted to say I admire your stamina and your support for your partner and that I am sending you hugsss and will be sending your partner "healing vibes" with prayers.

I see how he can feel down and defeated : (((, his feelings come from the place of terrible discomfort and ADT effecting his mood in a bad way : (((, but I am sure that you will find the way to persuade him to try some mild anti depressant since so far you managed to pull him through rough patches with great success.

Maybe try to emphasize to him that he actually went through the worst of it - surgery and full 37 sessions of radiations immediately after - that is a GREAT feat !!! He did great !!!! He is just tiered at the moment and dealing with side effects that will get better with time and patience.

Is he done with IMRT completely ?
