[QUOTE="klmno, post: 84375, member: 3699"] This sounds like a dysfunctional/co-dependent type relationship to me. Probably common to a lot of us with difficult child's who have tried to find ways to cope with everything and maintain some stability with each other- in my humble opinion. I don't blame you for feeling the way you do- this sounds like my mother/family, too. Can you get husband back into counseling with you? I was told by a therapist once that my mom was that way because she looked to other people to fill her emotional needs and to remind myself that I was responsible for taking care of myself emotionally, not her. I've tried to find gentle ways to let her know that she should take steps to take care of her own emotions, but this hasn't gotten very far! (((HUGS))) Good luck! At least you're going to a counselor and it sounds like that is going well- keep us posted! [/QUOTE]
