Back at my Mum's...........again

Hey all,
I was here over the Mother's Day weekend and posted about it. I'm back again. He flipped out last Sunday over something tiny, telling me to 'f*ck off back to that Rat Hole I found you in' etc. Even he admits that he went too far this time. He's never been physically abusive, has outbursts over small things and is a very negative and critical person.
Have never been away for so long. He knows I don't know if I'm going back or not this time. He has suggested counseling (looking into it, very pricey but may get a reduced rate due to having a disabled child) and he has made a doctor's appointment to see the GP about his anger and to see if it's his medication. But I don't know if I've had enough this time. Part of me is devastated that this could be it for our marriage and our family, and another part of me is just yearning for something else out of life and thinking that I've made it this far, I should just end it. I don't know if I should go back and give him the opportunity to get his anger problem looked at.

Seems a very odd effect of bp meds...he just sounds angry and horrible ..i can't believe he pulled the handbrake in your car when you were driving.... Not only endangering your lives but anyone else on the road as well..... That's a scary place to be... Maybe think about returning once he's had a lot of counselling and demonstrated he can control himself because that is not normal.....
I would look at finding someone to talk to as well or the freedom programme from woman's aid as I'm not sure why you went back after the previous episodes....
Your posts are all about him not what you want from your life... Would suggest you go to CAB for benefits check to o if you are not working....

His heart is in the right place. He gets cross with me for disagreeing with him.

How is this an indication of his heart being in the right place? He says one thing, you show why that is not correct, he goes ballistic because you dare to disagree with him. This is just about control and his belief that he is superior to you - no doubt he makes you feel beholden to him because he's the wage earner?

I'm at my mum and dads and can stay here for as long as I need to. I can claim carer's allowance until my son goes to school and I go back to work.

Stupidly perhaps, I miss him

He never did any housework on that day I workes and said that the amount of housework he did was in relation to the amount of rent I paid

You paid the bills and still it wasn't enough to prevent his shitty-lordship from passing judgement on you and deciding how much more exhausted you could get. Please don't go back to this selfish, controlling, angry and abusive man. He is, from the sound of it, escalating and outright violence isn't far from his repertoire. He's already testing the edges of it indirectly.
