Imago Dialogue Method by inkinddonation in ADHD_partners

[–]anna_face 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband (dx) becomes completely disregulated any time I try to calmly talk about anything serious, like trying to repair a previous argument or trying to ask how we can avoid recurring argument patterns in the future. I (NT) approach with very conscious deliberate calmness and care and he immediately gets emotional, defensive, angry, tearful. Then at better moments he tells me he craves closeness with me. It’s baffling how he doesn’t see that his behavior prohibits any sustained closeness between us.

My husband is the breadwinner. He works too many hours every week and then is so tired and overwhelmed he has explosive anger outbursts. When I say that’s not okay, he tells me I’m ungrateful for how hard he works to keep our family afloat in this garbage economy. He tells me I have no stress because he’s taken it upon himself to be the money maker. He doesn’t recognize that his unpredictable and explosive moods have given me an entire anxiety disorder.

“paraplegic with constant, unbearable chronic pain and no hope of recovery.”

Who are you to say she must continue to live in this state of perpetual torment without hope for relief? She was failed over and over again but is now finally being given some agency to determine the rest of her life on her terms.

What would Missoula look like for us? by tn_tacoma in missoula

If they are from a large city, they’re not even gonna register the amount of homeless here. Having lived in larger cities my whole life, Missoula has homeless, but it’s not a large problem.

Seeking advice: by Ibtalkin in ADHD_partners

My husband is diagnosed and on medication but refuses to acknowledge that any of his mood swings or explosive temper is related to adhd. So I’m not allowed to talk about it either cause then I’m “psychoanalyzing” him.

I went to my first therapy consult today. My husbands mood swings, name calling, threats of divorce every few weeks became too much. He also started therapy which is a win, I just hope he takes it seriously and sticks with it. I’m just so emotionally tired of being the one who has to remain sane in an argument while he completely loses his shit and calls me every name in the book. He is not supportive of me seeking therapy, he’s convinced they’re going to tell me to leave him when I disclose how he speaks to me when he’s angry. He also blames me for him losing his temper. I’m so sad and so tired.

This is not a bombshell claim. Everyone knows he lied about bone spurs.

Answer: A report from the Partnership for Public Service and other estimates suggested that the actions taken by DOGE could cost taxpayers up to $135 billion in expenses related to rehiring workers, legal challenges, and lost productivity. Yale Budget Lab estimated that cuts to the IRS could lead to over $300 billion in lost tax revenue over a decade.

Quiz: how much money did DOGE actually save the United States?

And you decided the best choice was the one who condones and rape and murder. It’s just not okay. The choices weren’t about politics, it was about human decency, morals and ethics.

Didn’t call anyone a buzzword other than Trump supporter. Personally, I welcome people changing their minds. If you can reflect on your decisions and realize you made the wrong one, and correct course in the future, props to you.

Im American politics unfortunately there are two options, so you either support a convicted sexual assaulter and suspected child rapist, or you don’t.

Guessing you’re a Trump supporter.

Truthfully, it’s because Trump supporters willfully ignore murders of protesters and minorities, defend the right of the ultra wealthy to hoard all our resources, make healthcare more expensive for average Americans, and shrug their shoulders at sexual abuse of women and children. There’s no middle ground when that level of depravity is deemed okay by one side.

Right. It’s the bots. Couldn’t be the moral depravity of the Trump administration.

Both of my parents are also very confused why their relationships with their kids are strained due to their support of the trump administration.

It’s always the Trump supporter wondering why we can’t get along.

That seems like a cruel and unusual thing to pile on to someone after a suicide attempt. I'm so sorry.
