Thanks everyone for your advice and energy! Will do a separate post on what transpired with WAH. But first G, your story - thanks for sharing it here. I should go to your post to respond, but I just wanted to say quickly how obviously your husband DOES fit what my coach said about this type of WAS being unable to see themselves being happy in the role of husband/father. The adjustment disorder diagnosis also seems spot on. I noticed some year(s) ago, H started treating me more and more like his mother. Avoiding. After reading your post, I am curious to know what the relationship between your WAH and his mum is like right now?
