[quote=Anonymous]DH seems extra irritable and grumpy this weekend. I tend to be sensitive to such things. What’s normal- how should I react? If at all? Something I can do to help?  Ride it out and steer clear? I did call it out and note that he seems very irritable.
Just very negative, and hating life, hating where we live, fed up with everyone who lives here. Feeling like he doesn’t belong or fit in anywhere. Annoyed with the kids. I think he is annoyed with me.

I will note that it makes me feel very on edge like he’s going to blow up. Part of that is that he tends to be a verbally expressive angry guy at times, and part of that is because I grew up in an abusive household so I’m a little too keyed in to people’s moods.

Would really appreciate an outside objective perspective on how to approach….

I’ll also say I’ve been trying to put less pressure on him to do things.  I got some feedback on here that I was way too overboard with expectations of doing family things, so we have been just taking it easy and dialing everything back. Lots of time just hanging out and chilling with each other at home instead of doing things.[/quote]
