[QUOTE="DDD, post: 321270, member: 35"] Many of us, like you, have always been strong and very independent. Personally I think that may be a factor in the situation you and your husband are facing. It's possible that you may be having difficulty accepting that you all can not do what you thought you could do. Perhaps your husband is not prepared to accept "failure" for the first time in his life. I can relate. Even with my non-violent dysfunctional difficult child I heard many times "if you can't get that pretty girl squared away nobody can". I couldn't. I tried everything. I gave up my financial security, my sleep, my social life and a bunch of time that I could have spent with my other two children. Even though I know better..I still hate to accept the fact that I couldn't fix it. Maybe husband feels like that. DDD [/QUOTE]
