Like, what are the causes of his mental health deteriorating? What leads him to become the character he is? My best understanding is the loss of his wife, but seems like a very minor reason for his whole life turning around.

Clandestine military experiment that was supposed to produce soldiers with the cold resistance of a walrus, but just ended up making them fat, stupid and hairy.

it was determined later in the episode that bill was only given a placebo, so he was not actually affected by the walrus thing

He was just a doormat for his entire life, right? In high school he followed Hank around, and that made him into an all-state football player. Then after that, he followed around his wife doing whatever she told him to. She was kind of a terrible person, and it did not go well for him.

I don't know about that. He was very popular and friendly. He wasn't too much of a doormat. I think the fact was, Lenore was a terrible woman who manipulated and slowly destroyed him. It was his marriage that made him into what he became.

She was controlling and evil and he loved her. When she left, he became a whimpering child-like man with so much mental issues that he craved affection and had such a poor image of himself. In the episode where they were firefighters, his own flashback when telling the story showed how he truly saw himself. He saw himself as fatter and balder than he actually was and even a total slob. IN comparison, Dale is his complete opposite.

That's only half true. His divorce happened more recently but he slowly devolved before that point.

Bill was also abused by his father when he was a kid. Made him wear dresses to humiliate him. Pretty sure that, the army, and lenore.

Bill briefly talked about this in the episode where Dale reunites with his dad. The episode isn't Bill-centralized so most people probably missed this part.

There was some weird episode where he goes back to Louisiana and like 3 or 4 women immediately try to fuck him but one is his cousin and for some reason nobody tells him which one so he doesn't do any of them.

I think it was the episode when they went to Louisiana. It's been a minute since I watched though.

I was thinking of the episode where Dale talks to his father. IIRC, Bill makes a comment that his dad used to lock in in a cage, or something like that.

Wasn't there an episode where Lenore came back, and Bill fell off even harder?

Yes! It was that episode thank you. Said he put him in dresses and locked him in a cage.
