"Incredibly proud of my wife...when she thought she had no choices left, she reached out & decided to LIVE today!" he wrote. "My life would be desolate without her in it. You are beautiful, strong, worthy, & loved @CatelynnLowell #KeepTalkingMH."

Teen Mom viewers have witnessed Catelynn be open about her mental health struggles. In season six of the show, cameras rolled when the 25-year-old returned home after a month-long stay at an Arizona-based treatment center.

She also has been open on the series about her struggles with post-partum depression.

"I decided I needed to get help from talking with Tyler and realizing that I maybe needed something more intense for myself," she previously explained to MTV News. "For some reason, I just had a light bulb moment where I was like, 'Maybe I need extra help.'"

Teen Mom OG returns with new episodes November 27 on MTV.
