[QUOTE="Star*, post: 143886, member: 4964"] You know ----- I read your whole post. Some parts twice, and I see you listing all the reasons why husband gets a 'pass' for lack of better word to continue behaving like he does, I see you listing all the reasons for difficult child to behave like he does, and I see NOTHING in there for YOU, but 2 people making promises after a violent episode over a bottle of cranberry juice. NOTHING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR YOU TO HAVE SOME SANITY IN ALL THAT.... AND You made some pretty valid points for a woman who is under so much stress. Yes..I GET IT about the cranberry juice - It could have been toothpaste, a pencil, or newspaper for all that mattered. Your husband has HAD IT. Get that very well. Don't know a parent who hasn't been there. And I ABSOLUTELY KNOW about back surgery patient, depression, over weight, depressed - and dealing with a difficult child as a step father. been there done that - won't do it again. Too much stress for ME. I think If I were you - since your husband has refused to get any sort of counseling and be open to anything but continue doing what he's been doing without success - and making a statement about me or him? I'd take my 7 year old daughter, rent a motel room for us for a week at a beach and throw my cell phone in the mail box. Your a fixer - that is what fixers do - we FIX things - we mend fences, we keep the peace, we bind the ties. And we burn out pretty dang early in life and have strokes, or heart attacks and then *think* about WHO among your house hold will be there to NURSE YOU!!! Son overcoming addiction - or depressed husband? (I didn't have addicted son but get the picture?) TAKE CARE OF YOU - And let them go - if they are going to verbally kill each other - let them - you sound like you need a break from being EVERYONES MOM. And that's a shame because you make 120% sense in what you said to husband and difficult child. Hugs- Star [/QUOTE]
