I've been feeling very worthless and have been wallowing in what feels like a pit of hopelessness.
I've researching mental illness and along the way, I've had some revelations about my personality and mind that are deeply troubling me. I've realized some things about my family, some which I repressed and do not remember, told to me by my brother.
Yesterday, I was very low. i was struggling with some ideation. I feel like an unlovable POS. I told my husband that if he was unhappy and unsatisfied, he could sleep with other people. To use protection and dont tell when or who. I just want one of us to be happy.
He took this as a great insult to himself. He threw my mental illness in my face as an excuse to treat people however I want. He questioned whether I'm a narcissist and saying this as a way to manipulate.
I have a problem with communication and expression. especially under pressure and in emotional-mental stress. I literally shut down verbally. He doesn't understand this at all. Maybe we just aren't a good match. Or maybe this is me just pushing him away when I'm troubled the most.
