hugs honey! you are not stupid, or worthless. you understand that this is wrong and unhealthy, and you understand that you were raised in a similar way - which is probably what attracted you to your husband in the first place. nobody deserves to be yelled at, or called a B***. YOUR going to therapy will only help YOU - but it won't CHANGE your husband.
i am sorry that you feel that living like this is good for your daughter. do you really believe that? remember ---- this is the way that YOU were treated as a child, do you really think that this is GOOD and HEALTHY for your dd?
do you have a job, or job skill? do you have money, friends, family, who can help you?
What is your daughter learning from watching you two, her role model relationship? What does she learn about how to treat people and how to be treated? What type iof man will she be attracted to when she goes up? I can answer that for you:
'as a kid i had to hear it from my dad all the time '
Do you want the cycle to continue?
I think it is great that you are in counseling but unless he goes to counseling or anger management classes, he is not going to change.
NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER believe anyone that tells you or treats you like you are stupid. The only Stupid is the one who is oppressing you with these abusive thoughts and actions. You are doing the right thing right now by wanting it to stop and I believe you will make it stop cause you can make it stop for both you and your daughter and he won't.
Just a tip - if you feel and look helpless to an abuser - they see you as someone they can hurt - you are easy prey. Don't allow it.
