[quote=Anonymous]I am not going to give you the Chicken Little sky is falling answer given by other PPs because they are over the top and probably saying that to make themselves feel better about their own crappy DHs. Sometimes parents have fights, sometimes they escalate. As long as there’s no verbal abuse or violence it’s not the absolute worst thing in the world.

HOWEVER it should not be as frequent as you describe. You guys need to pinpoint and try to remove the external stressors. Is it his job? Change it. Is it money? Downsize your lifestyle. Is it an underlying depression? Treat it. Continue with the therapy - lots and lots of therapy. Some individual therapy for yourself as well. You need a second opinion on whether your DH’s behavior is in fact abuse and you are not recognizing it - right now I am taking you at your word that it is not, but you should verify that.

Also - make sure both of you get plenty of exercise and meditation time. That helps a lot with the anger.[/quote]
