It's also possible that it's his coping style - if he pretends everything is normal & he continues with a happy facade, maybe it'll make you happier. He's probably thinking if he 'feeds' your depression, it'll only grow. It's what stems from another person not understanding depression or not *wanting* to understand it.
If you can get him to accompany you to your pdoc (if he's a good doc), or to a family counsellor, you may both benefit from opening communication about depression between you & your husband.
