[quote=Anonymous]You guys need to get back into counseling. You both need it. I say that very seriously. Your relationship has taken a serious hit in terms of trust. I am someone who was horrible to my husband PP. I got medication, I got therapy, I apologized to him. But he does not say I was a "bitch", he responds with empathy and understanding because I was basically mentally ill. You need to apologize with no "buts." However, you also need to express your feelings that you were (1) abandoned when you needed help and (2) continue to be punished for something that was beyond your control at the time. I seriously urge you to get you and your spouse into therapy because even if you are not yelling, each of you has damaged trust in the other. You guys need to get beyond blaming each other, take responsibility for what you did, and express the true hurt you felt to the other. Your spouse sounds like he is not taking any responsibility and I think you need to accept that your behavior really hurt your husband, not say things like "I can't take very much responsibility for this." Your hurt your husband. He failed to help you then, and he is now hurting you. This does not indicate a solid marriage and you guys need couples counseling with someone competent. If your spouse says he does not "need it" say that you need it and you are in a marriage together and that means your marriage "needs" it. [/quote]
