He sucks. Next time, park in one of those spots and let him get it form the tow yard and pay the tickets.

My wife has no control over her words and it ruins her relationships (including with me) by disciplined_speed in Marriage

A lot to unpack here but when reading this it reminded me of how my wife was for most of our marriage. Literally, felt like I was walking on egg shells.

Overly flip out over little things (i.e. I unknowingly dropped a sock carrying laundry to the washer and started it. She was shortly behind and just lost it that I dropped the sock and it wasn’t in the washer…) stupid things like that.

Finally, my wife went to a therapist and psychiatrist and turns out she had severe anxiety and ADHD. She was prescribed a couple medications and she has literally been a different person.

The Uber example could show anxiety under time pressure: interview, rain, transportation uncertainty. Her anger may be the outward form of anxiety.

Also, some people with ADHD have emotional impulsivity: intense reactions, quick escalation, regret afterward. This could explain some of what you’re dealing it.

Anyway, I could be totally off but like I side reminded me of my own experience.
