After 11 years of marriage, I was finally able to convince my wife (through a third party...long story) that she needed to go to counseling. She has been seeing a Christian counsellor for a few visits, and had her first visit with a Pdoc last Monday. Interestingly, I had become the target of my wife's aggression. I had blamed a number of things, including myself, for a number of years before I realized that the ABUSE ISSUE was the root of (most) of the problem. She has a long road to go, I only wish that she would use me as a support rather than as PART of the perceived problem. I have discussed our issues on this forum in the past, so I won't expound anymore now. Arrghhhh!!! It's bad enough dealing with my own mental issues, and trying to maintain a "normal" life for my kids, now it has been exacerbated by this abuse issue with my wife. At least I know she now recognizes, and has acknowleded this as an issue, so hopefully we can move forward. Thanks for all the support you all may offer!
