How do you deal with it? We've been together 30 years, generally a good healthy relationship. He works hard, great dad, love us all. BUT behind closed doors he is a mood projector. It's not intentional to upset me/DC (teens) but it definitely lacks control. When he's happy, it's great (he projects that mood too) but if he's POd then he's like a dementor sucking the mood from the room. The 'leave him' advice isn't really what I'm after - what do you actually do to make/help someone get a grip of themselves? We've talked about it, he's not depressed (he's not) and always promises to sort it out, but never really does. It's not often, maybe once a month and generally starts with work stress and being tired. He's turning into my grumpy FIL (learnt behaviour etc) and that alarms me greatly!!
