Husband is driving me crazy!

Does anyone else have to deal with a consistently grumpy husband? Can it get better?

Me and DH have been together 10+ years. We go round in the same circles. He gets frustrated with really minor issues. He has huffing and puffing moments where I'm walking on eggshells. When we try to discuss the issue he then moans about how it's always him having to control his behaviour and having to keep his opinions to himself.

I just don't understand why he needs to be so annoyed all the time. Life's too bloody short. It just makes me feel like a crappy wife and that I'm not making him happy. He's only really like this with me. It's really starting to get me down. He speaks to me like shit too and when I pull him up on it he sulks for hours on end.

Usually we have a discussion and he trys to change his ways but whether it's 6 weeks or 6 months later, we end up back in the same argument.

When things are good, they're amazing but I'm starting to wonder if I can deal with these mood swings for the rest of my life.

I've learned to ignore or laugh at mine when he gets outraged at tiny things. I just move away. I did have a word and whn it starts I just sigh and take no notice. It's himself he's hurting really.
Anger issues? Does he drink? Is he depressed? Has he always been like this?

I could have written this myself. My husband is the grumpiest old bastard I’ve ever met. I really feel sorry for myself having to live like this but I’m financially trapped. I posted a thread tonight about it x
