Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of some psychological disease is more likely in your wife.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done clinical examination of your wife.
Question answer sessions by psychiatrist will give you diagnosis if she is suffering from anxiety or depression or psychosis.
She may need anxiolytic, antidepressants and antipsychotic drugs on the basis of diagnosis.
Counselling sessions are also very important in recovery.
Don't worry, she will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your wife. Thanks.
