Husband Keeps Talking Divorce

My husband is driving me crazy. He constantly talks about divorcing me but then the next minute, he's fine. He is verbally abusive to me at times. I feel as though I'm an emotional wreck. I feel so unloved and uncared for by him. He can't seem to understand how hurt I am. I just basically want to curl up and die.

I know that I need to be stronger but it's so hard right now. I'm on a emotional roller coaster. He calls me insane but all I'm doing is reacting to his verbal abuse and his lack of love towards me.

you need counselling -- talk to your doctor or church for a recommendation. do it now.

I have gone to counseling (along with him at times). Unfortunately, our counselor is so busy that it's hard to get into to see her on a frequent enough basis. I guess I should call my doctor to see if she can prescribe something. I really feel at the end of my rope right now. The only thing that keeps me hanging on is the most important thing in my life (my 2 kids -- they aren't his children -- they're from my first marriage).

Thanks for the good advice and understanding.

i know how hard it is -- i'm only now starting to have good days here and there. my husband let me know our marriage was over way before it ended -- it's a horrible, demeaning way to live. you need counselling alone too -- not just marriage counselling.
