ok, so I am very emotional, moody and aggressive at the moment because I have come of my mental health medication and am pregnant and am taking steroids, the perfect storm of hormones and chemicals. This means I find myself shouting at my husband a lot for trivial things (he has eaten the last packet of crisps, he has not made me a coffee in the morning, he has not done the washing up after I have cooked etc…) overall he is pretty well trained but these little things wind me up and I just snap. I often say he is horrible, or discussing but generally try not to call him names, though with my hightend emotions and poor mental health at the moment I behave pretty badly a fair amount of the time.
The problem is this, when I have a go at him about these different things, he will often get wound up and call me crazy. He has told me to f’off a few times and even called me an idiot. I appreciate that I often start this but he seems to think that I should be less worried about his behaviour and more focused on trying to change my behaviour. He upsets me when he reacts like that and trying to get a handle on what is fair.he said he will try to stop calling me names when I get like that but it’s not enough,
