[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let him be. We all have off times where everything just gets to us and we are irritable. You need therapy. I grew up in a verbally abusive home and I know exactly the feeling you're describing. Unfortunately, it can make situations worse and often we are a big part of the problem. I got therapy after a toxic relationship and a friend pointed out that my "walking on eggshells" and "trying to figure out what I was doing wrong" played a big part of the toxic dynamic. When I look at my relationship with DH and our healthy communication and our healthy dynamic, I'm amazed at how far I've come. [/quote] Yes I’m starting to recognize this a bit more. Actually DH does the same thing with me as well, and he grew up in an equally abusive household- just more emotionally chaotic. It takes concerted effort to try and look at things objectively and take off that lens. I had 2 yrs of therapy but did not work on the relationship aspect as much.[/quote]
