Pretty much was the whole wkend. I tried to keep my distance, but everytime something came up that went wrong H blamed me for it, and its really getting old. I was ready to call it quits this wkend.


Oh, (((((Tal))))),

You need to talk to H about this. If it all possible, calmly set him down and let him know that he is out-of-bounds, that you understand he must be under a lot of stress and that he is suffering from depressive thoughts and emotions, but it is affecting you and doing great damage to your R.

I think it would be best he sees a physician (if not a counselor) for what is obviously depression. I know you're strong and extremely patient, but he needs to get a rein on this before it does anymore harm, to you, himself and the M.

And please look after yourself too, Tal. I know how stressful and painful this is for you. I know how his poor reaction to life's stressors can harm you, his spouse, in return. Set your boundaries, know your limits, and help coax H to healing himself.

You know how to reach me if you ever need to talk.

Blessings.
