Hi, It's been awhile since I've posted on here. First, to get everyone updated on current events, I now Identify as as transgendered woman. I've been living completely put as a transwoman for a little while now. My legal first name is now Natalie. That's not really why I'm posting today...

Hi everyone. So my wife and I are semi-officially separated, whatever you want to call it, it's over. We're still living in the same house. For now I don't have anywhere else to go with the quarantine and all, not to mention financial constraints. She wants to keep me in the same house, and...

Hello, So for those who have read my posts before, this will be more of an update. My wife and I are "Officially" but not legally separated, really meaning that we announced it on Facebook. She pieced together different parts of heartfelt speeches of how we're separated but still friends...

HI everyone, It's been a little while. I can't really remember where I left off the last time I posted. My wife is in love with a woman, though I guess her gender isn't that relevant to this post. She's said she wants to be polyamorus with this woman. I've gone along cause she says she...

Hi Everyone, So there's been a new factor in my marriage. I always forget where I left off last, so I apologize if I'm repeating myself. My wife now identifies as pansexual, demisexual (a varient of asexuality where the person in question can only be sexually attracted to people they feel a...

Hi everyone. I'm having so much trouble with work. I'm a nurse assistant. Every day I dread going there. It's never mattered what job I was doing. It always gets more difficult the longer I've been there, never easier. I even arranged my schedule to use my days off for specific self care...

Hi everyone. So here's what's been going on now. My wife has found a support forum she likes, and gets along with. I wanted her to do this so her moods wouldn't be directed all on me. She even has a friend she's been talking to a lot that lives in Australia (for reference I live in eastern...

Hello, Does anybody know of a possible type of job that has evening hours, isn't overly physical (but could be somewhat physical) and keeps social triggers to a minimum (I know there will always be some triggers I'm just looking for an improvement on my current situation). To give a basis for...

Hello everyone, So there's been an ongoing saga I've been posting about on this site regarding my emotionally abusive wife, and everyone has been very supportive. Last week at my son's 18 month check up, some questions were raised about his communication skills not developing the way they...

So a number of people on this site have been very supportive regarding my wife being abusive. Things have taken an interesting turn, in a good way, and I don't know whether to trust it. Up till now she's refused to talk to, or seek support from anyone else aside from me. Lately she's been...

Hello. So... I don't even really know what to do anymore. For about a week my wife was getting support from an app/website called 7 cups, where you have access to peer listeners, and can pay for online therapy. In that time it seemed like we were having some good conversations, and things...

Hi everyone. I don't know that I have much to say about my so-called relationship that I haven't before, I'm just lonely I guess. She was in a good mood and poured a little cold water on me as a "joke" and I apparently made some kind of face. Said she was feeling good and trying to share...

I have a 15 month old, and I get intense anxiety that I am not parenting well. I've had general anxiety and ptsd for years, and now I'm constantly anxious that I have the TV on too much, or that I should be introducing solid foods more quickly, or just that I'm being a terrible parent in...

I have stayed at a new job as a nurse assistant for 3 weeks now, which is a profession I practically ran away crying from 10 years ago due to anxiety and avoident tendencies. I have thought about running for the hills after some bumps in the road, but have been able to work through that urge...

Hello, Just wanted to let people who have supported me on this site before (and anyone else) that I'm still here. I still haven't left her, i'm still miserable in the relationship, still cant stop myself from reacting to her in a caring and re-assuring way even though I know she's never shown...

So I know I can't stay with my wife, despite my anxiety about my son. Last night she was in a good mood, and kept (almost manically) presenting rediculous hypothetical situations (like would I let someone cut off her toe for a billion dollars, or if someone was threatening her life unless I had...

I don't really have anyone else to talk to, at least not for the next week or so. Things are out of control with my wife, not that this is the first time. She obviously doesn't trust anyone. She acted like I endanged our child because I let the doctor give him more than one vaccination at a...

So my wife just agreed to mariage counseling (which at the moment seems kind of bittersweet). She only agreed to go after she caught me in a lie, which was really only me not telling her that my mom was coming over when she was at work on some sundays. She told the counselor that her goal was...

Hello, So what's goiing on is: a company in my field of study is interested in me. If they offer me the job, I want to take it. My wife, who I have established is emotionally abusive, doesn't want me to work in the counseling field. Last time I tried to it didn't go so well... like...

So I'm feeling like a broken reccord on this site. I want/need to leave my wife who is emotionally abusive. I have somewhere to go, I know who to call for custody related legal issues, I've told pretty much everyone I wanted to what's going on (friends/family). I'm getting a little more...

I am in a place now that I habe decided that I need to leave my wife who is emotionally abusive. I know there's never gonna be ha perfect time to do it. I still can't stop myself from giving in to her manipulations, no matter how small. Its like an addiction (which I've had some experience...

Hello. So I've finally come to the conclusion that I deffinitely have to leave my wife who is emotionally abusive. She's had a hard life, and I can't believe I'm going to make it harder, but whatever our marriage is... well it's not a marriage. She's had a lot of past trauma and I feel for...

Hello, So i've been back and forth on whether I my wife is emotionally abusive, but at the moment we're kind of in new territory. We had a baby who is almost 4 months old now. When her maternity leave ended, and she had to go back to work she had/is having a lot of trouble adjusting. I...

Hello, I have a trauma history, but today I am posting as a supporter of someone with a trauma history, which I also am. Yesterday we recieved some bad news. My wife is pregnant, and we found out yesterday that the baby is in breach position. My wife hates hospitals, and was planning to...

Hello, I have posted under relationships a number of times before, but I have to say something. I have come to the conclusion that my wife is definitely emotionally abusive. She's done a number of red-flaggy things over the years we've known each other, but it seems like now that she was...
