First of all, let me say that all of you are so brave. I read these threads and I can't imagine the struggles that each and every one of you is trying to overcome each and every day. That being said, I am wondering... How did you realize that you were avoiding?
I have watched my husband of 14 years turn into a completely detached, unemotional and unrecognizable man in 3 short months. Long story short, he was involved in a tragic boating accident with my dad 4 years ago and my dad did not survive. I love my husband very much and hate that this happened to him. He never sought any kind of treatment and I think that everything has just bubbled over. He has moved out and barely has anything to do with me or our 2 year old son. I'm guessing that over time, I have become the main trigger for him. He says that divorce is the only answer and denies that the accident has anything to do with his apathy toward everything. I'm absolutely at a loss and heartbroken. I have read enough to know that he does not have the capacity to support me or our son right now, and nothing seems to get through to him that his life is falling apart around him. I would do anything for this man, but I don't recognize this person anymore- and neither does anyone else.
