Marriage and mental health

I posted on here a few weeks ago and now the relationship has more or less coming to and end. I had hoped that somewhere I could save it or he would be a bit more emotionally available. I have PTSD, but I manage it pretty well, I don't usually care that people still have a view of mental health issues in a negative light but today is the icing on the cake... During a somewhat heated discussion, I mean I was upset and crying, he looked at me so cold and said "I don't know what goes on in that warped little head of yours" this stung me so bad. I slept downstairs and woke up still so hurt by this. I cried, again...Am I being irrational? Am I taking it to heart? He made me feel so insignificant. He's called me crazy in the past and I don't think it hurt like this does. Says that basically anything I put to him "it's all in your head". I don't have family and stuff around, so once again I'm hoping someone here has got the advice X

Thank you for taking the time out. I honestly believe he knows what he's doing when he says these things, but he makes me feel more crazy by dismissing it. I feel like I'm going round in circles, and I just never thought I'd end up married to someone like this

@ThisIsTheBadger he seems ok with it, but when it comes to work, mine always has to work around him. So it's difficult to find a job. He does all the shopping and stuff and doesn't withhold money or anything. He says that I'm lucky to have him, no other guy would put up with all my shit, sometimes I believe that.
