[quote=Anonymous]Overall, there has been more emotional abuse in my marriage than physical abuse. Moreover, the physical abuse was relatively minor- pushing me away, getting in my face while yelling, pushing up his sleeves while backing me into a corner, etc. I agree that getting better isn't just about the abuser controlling their anger, because my DH has a very mild temper towards our children and strangers (i.e., he would never even give another driver the finger). In my opinion, it's the emotional abuse and manipulation that are the hallmark of the relationship. That said, my DH changed dramatically when he went on anti-depressants. Nothing physical for a couple years. We also started therapy and, since then, the emotional abuse has decreased as well. [/quote]
