The needle incident is so typical of the kind of problem that I have with my H. (Funnily enough, he also takes testosterone.) I think of it as me falling into elephant traps that he has set. I don't see that they are there and manage to fall into them and really upset him. I don't understand why he is so upset and I feel doubly angry because he deals with his upset so aggressively and with such hostility.
It does sound like a great time for a coaching session. I do think you're on the right track but the patience required is huge and you will probably feel re-energized and motivated by a session.
