If : If your wife is experiencing behaviors/illnesses that are affecting her ability to be productive and enjoy her daily life, then she should seek out the care of a doctor. Start by calling her primary care doctor. They may be able to help with some of her chronic problems such as migraine and also may recommend a psychiatrist to help with her other problems. Good luck!
