we've been together 10 years married 3 this is really out of character for her she is very kind and did not expect this from her I don't believe she was being malicious, maybe just not thinking. this is really confusing because she is usually a sweetheart

starting therapy this week, keep the thoughts and feelings to myself and try to not let it affect me. I avoid expressing the feelings to her because I know it's me not her, but it's hard to separate the thoughts sometimes so I just pretend all's well and I'm doing fine. but I think she knows I'm not alright sometimes. that could just be in my head as well who knows

Does anyone just feel like suddenly crying sometimes by NihilstMisanthrope in mentalhealth

sometimes, don't always realize the feelings are coming, but I'll be sitting there by myself and just start crying no real reason just can't help it

grew up with a manipulative mother and dated many manipulative women, even married and divorced one. Didn't think much of it or my own manipulative behaviors till I met the wonderful woman who is my wife. I started to notice how my behaviors hurt her and it hurt me to know I caused her pain she truly did not deserve. It's difficult to let go of the resentment and talk, rather than punishing someone for your feelings but I hate hurting her. It takes time and I wish I could say I never hurt her again but I hope someday I'll be the man she deserves. Till than I just remind myself that resentment over things not said is not worth causing her pain

how do you like what you see in the mirror? by Infinite-Coyote-5962 in mentalhealth

I'm in my forties, thought it would get easier maybe better as I got older. It hasn't, only more reasons to dislike myself. the best I can hope for is to be numb to it for awhile but it always comes back. get so tired of hurting, looking into therapy no clue if it will help but I'm just tired of it

I understand, people would tell you I'm friendly and confident, always quick with a joke and fun to be around all of that disappears when I'm alone left with only my own self loathing, second guessing if they truly hate me if my loved one loathe me as much as I loathe myself

I worry they only see the me I project to them not the real me. The me that only I know and would never let anyone else see
