I don’t have anyone to talk to about this but I’d like your advice.
whenever we have a disagreement my husband gives me the silent treatment, he carries on like this for days, he won’t take any responsibility for his actions and has never apologized for the hurt that it causes, and blames me for his behavior using the excuse that I upset him years ago, he sees it as justification for his nastiness.
I have mental health issues dating from years ago caused by an abusive ex and I am having therapy, when I get upset I cry and he shouts at me because he can’t handle it and it gets on his nerves, he had a lousy upbringing and an abusive father, I don’t know how to cope anymore, I want to make him see what he’s doing to me but I don’t know how, I’m so depressed and confused but he won’t be happy until I apologize for something that I haven’t done and then he’ll still drag it out, I want to stand up to him but I don’t know how and if I try to talk to him he goes to bed and won’t let me into the room or he goes out and doesn’t come back for hours, I wish I could go to sleep and never wake up.
