Bruce's reply, which was after the dramatic swings between admitting feeling utter despair and suicidal thoughts at times,
OR fantasizing about fleeing to other continents so he could avoid seeing his son (who'd "understand later that Bruce was powerless"-which I think NO son has ever understood in history) and "starting over with another woman and having a NEW family like his cousin did",
OR ruminating about giving it all over to wife...
Bruce said that he does not need meds or a support group. Also said he just saw "the best c in the city" and she told him he can't control his wife...
He seemed to know that, yet he said he was "So disappointed".
I'm Not sure if that's more cognitive dissonance, (saying one thing but thinking another) or language translation problems,
or a disconnect between what his mind knows and the emotional knowledge that is lagging behind. But according to him, as of last week, NO meds.
Before that, like last summer, might be a different story.
Like I said Bruce, no shame in getting help. The real shame is living miserably and doing nothing healthy about it. You and your son deserve a healthy Bruce.
Otherwise your moods will still swing and suffer and you'll probably say or do more things you regret.
Patience/Perserverance are admirable traits.
Stubborness is self destructive and takes others with you. Make sure you distinguish between those three.
