I have very up and down moods. I can feel perfectly fine and then very very low. I think this is due to my very traumatic childhood and living with a parent who also had extreme highs and lows. I am trying to move past it, have given up alcohol, had therapy, do exercise, etc. My problem is that my partner barely acknowledges there's a problem. He tends to underplay things or ignore big issues which really doesn't help.
I have found myself feeling really resentful over his lack of support but wonder if it's my issue that I need to take care of or if I should expect more from him. I recently felt suicidal and he just said I was being extreme and didn't mention it again. I love him but I wonder if we have a future together. I almost feel like I don't have a chance of healing past traumas when he is so reluctant to acknowledge them.
I don't know if I'm expecting too much though and shouldn't blame him for being a bit dismissive of it.
We have children and been together almost 20 years.
