Reading your messages makes me concerned for *your* welfare- I hope that you have some support too (like you had with the counselling).
Have you told her doctor how she is? Just from the point of you not having to carry all the responsibility- and it sounds exhausting that she is venting everything at you. Doctors should also be used to people who put on a smiling face but are feeling appalling.
I can see you are in a difficult position as any efforts you make to get her to seek help risk making her even angrier at you.
*If* a calm explanation to her of the effect her state is having on your child might help her consider help, that *might* be one option- but you have more expertise in this; I cant tell.
Take care of yourself. I'll be thinking of you and your family.
