Are you aware of any problems at work,is he under pressure there.What are the Dianamics at home ,you have 3 little ones, do you make time to do things just you and Him?As he seems to be okay outside the home it does sound as if its between you two. It could be a phase hes going through but he could be depressed,is his Diet okay,can you cook some tasty meals you know he likes. Keep talking to him as he wont see anyone only the Doc, you can make yourself aggreeable to him and good to be around you cant make him he has to do that for himself.If he has a friend or a Family member you can ask if they have noticed a withdrawal in him.
He could be depressed and dont think that men dont go through male menopause.
On the ohter hand and I hatae to bring this up but could he be having an affair?
He is definaly exhibiting all the signs of having an affair. I hope noe for your sake and he is just going through depression cause that can be fixed.
He will need to see a psychiatrist to evaluated and definately needs to see a therapist.
Good luck

Namaste,
You describe some classic symptoms of major depression, however, it seems to be more prevalent at home than elsewhere, which could mean that the issue is between the two of you, but don't rule out a psychological issue at play, whatever the problem.
If he refuses to go to counseling, that doesn't mean you can't go alone. Sometimes talking with a mental health provider will give you more insight as to the actual problem.
Since he did go to see a doctor it would have been important for him to have been brutefully honest about his feeling and physical symptoms, if any. Only after that, could the doctor make or recommend a proper evaluation and, if necessary, prescribe an appropriate medication.
I wish you luck and hope that you can convince your husband to see a mental health provider.
