My marriage is in crisis...

We have our councellor appointment soon. Not to soon if I might add. Today, I keep feeling so angry! I hate this. He is a video game addict and it impaxcts everything. I can't count on him for nothing! On top of it I think he is depressed but won'T admit it cause he won'T go for help! I keep ignoring him today. I keep not wanting sex with him. Not to punish him, just cause I feel angry and sad and disappointed. I sleep on the couch often. He is a sweet kind man really but the issues of game etc are ruining everything! I could scream, cry, freak out etc. But I have to go to work. I hate this.

I gotta get this done

HEy Goofy,
 
Sorry to hear the news. Hang in there we are hear for you. I have you (and your family)  in my thoughts and my heart and my prayers! Hang in there we are here for you anytime!
 
My favortie prayer:
 
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

My marriage is in crisis...

The only coping strategies I know work in the short temr but hurt in the long term. Like swallowing up all my feelings until I can't feel them and feeel the illusion of happy. Or pretending like the problem is not there or never even existed. Denial and delusion are my coping strategies. I have tried talking but never get through and it starts fights and then when the fights get to be too much I just go back to pretending. And then he lets me pretend and all feels ok until the next time I just can't ignore things and the fighting start all over. And it is always the same thing and nothing ever changes and I am angry and hurt and sick of all this. SICK of it! As in about to just blow it all up just so I can have somepeace and some stability so I can rebuild. I am tired of all this, so tired...
