[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recommend the book You are the One You’ve Been Waiting For (Internal Family Systems). It’s a compassionate explanation of what might have been going on inside him and what’s going on inside you, might give you more insight and perspective to how you are feeling. Sometimes our systems protect us by shutting us down and numbing our emotions.

I am in a very similar situation. My DH has untreated mental health issues and was very abusive within the last year. He is now calming down, going to counseling, etc. but I’m just weary and have trouble imagining the feelings coming back. At the same time we were separated for 6 months and I hated not seeing the kids all the time (we nested, so they didn’t know). Ugh. It’s all hard. Love yourself, care for yourself, and heal. The answer will become clear in time.[/quote]

OP thanks for the update. I really think this book might resonate with you and help reframe some of the challenges you’re both having. There is a free copy online at Internet Archive.

Wishing you healing.[/quote]
