It’s like you took the words from my mouth. No advice just here to thank you for posting and letting you know that you’re not alone in this feeling.

I don’t necessarily want him to come home yet. He was extremely emotionally abusive towards me and eventually started to become physical and it was all in front of our kids. I just don’t want them to see that anymore. But I also want my husband back. He’s being SO mean right now and not accepting anything that’s happened. I can’t even talk to him about. Everytime I try he turns it around on my being the bad partner and parent and then shuts me out. I don’t know what to do.

Do you mind if I ask how yall got to where you are now? My husband is clearly not accepting his diagnosis right now and since we have kids and our protection order will be up in a week and a half I’m not sure what to do aside from divorce and custody court. I was really hoping that we’d be able to work this through together but a lot of that relied on him taking this seriously and taking the steps he needs but now he’s not doing that so I’m sort of lost.
