Baden-Clay said he had conversations with his wife about ending their marriage before seeing psychiatrist Dr Tom George in 2009.
He agreed he did not tell Dr George he wanted out of the marriage because his wife no longer slept with him.
“I complained to him about the fact that Allison had been telling herself that she did not have depression, for many years, and that when she was forced to, for want of a better description, be capable … she would do that, but whenever I was around she didn’t seem to make any effort at all,” he said.
Baden-Clay agreed there was tension between them about making decisions in the household.
He agreed he told Dr George he was frustrated by his wife’s level of dependence on him.
Baden-Clay agreed he told the doctor he had some financial stress at the real estate agency and resented his wife purchasing an expensive treadmill.
He agreed he did not tell Dr George he was not having enough sex.
“I never wanted to put pressure on Allison additionally on our sex life and one of the side-effects of her medication was a loss of libido and weight gain … it sounds pathetic,” he said.

Mr Fuller asked him if he remembered writing about it in a blog in 2008.

The trial will resume at 2.30pm.
