He even said that his counselors said we are co-dependent on each other (DUH I HAVE TOLD HIM THIS THOUSANDS OF TIMES) and that we needed couseling.. (HELLO DO I HAVE TO HAVE A DEGREE TO GET HIM TO LISTEN). He said he would consider counseling but he still has 21 days left there best case scenario so he is really trying to get better.
heh heh... sorry, you may as well choose to see the humor in this one
Amy.. you have a lot of frustration, and understandably so.
hang in there... do nice things for you... and let God and his "people on the inside" do the work now
it sounds like your H is finally in a place that is quiet enough for him to listen... and he has found people that he is actually capable of listening to. Just give it time, and keep doing what you have been doin (and go see him )
PS: (HELLO DO I HAVE TO HAVE A DEGREE TO GET HIM TO LISTEN)
Perhaps not... the main thing is that you have to be "someone other than Amy, his wife", unfortunately
it's good that he has now found someone who fits that description, to talk to.
May he continue to listen.
and while he is doing HIS listening... may you then feel free to let go of that worry from your mind, so that it will be clearer to listen to what your son is trying to tell you.
Peace
