[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP there was a thread on the parenting forum (I think) a while back about some mom feeling annoyed when her family is sick. Basically it was because her mom treated her that way when she was a child. I had a similar experience and I have to control the annoyance I feel when my kids or husband get sick. So to answer your question, look into his childhood. [/quote] Yeah, with my husband, it’s that he exaggerates his own sicknesses because he generally works himself to death and sickness is a guilt-free reason to give himself the self-care he ordinarily denies himself. And from his childhood experiences, he has an underlying assumption that when a woman gets sick she dies. You put those two together and his man-math works out that either I’m faking how sick I am or I’m going to die. Yes, he’s in therapy. No, it isn’t helping ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [/quote]
