I am to face my abusers on Monday in mediàtion for my daughter. I will be brave enough despite my marraige starting to crumble around me when I'm supposed to be strong and stable.

My inability to be free in the bedroom has slowly turned my husband from the most kind, caring wonderful man I have ever had the privilege to know into a man I no longer recognize, I have migraines and brain fog from the whole day long, max volume, physically involved ( he has never properly laid into me, he has only hit me once when he misunderstood something I said, generally he just shoves, grabs, corners, repositions, threatens me but its due to understandable frustration) telling of I get most times i speak because i always make things overcomplicated. Trying so hard to always answer him simply but seems to make no difference to his mood.

I love him and am in love with him completely but i can't satisfy him and it is slowly killing both of us. We survived so much as a couple a year and a half on the streets together included;are we really beyond repair after all the sustained had ship we've been through and all the adversity we faught to stay together?

As far as the frustration that is causing him to act and feel this way I've tried just letting him and still do sometimes but then I just feel sick and dirty and sore. I want to be with him like that eventually but I need proper help from a T but waiting list is long, longer than he can wait.

Winter's easing so if we split I could physically cope with being back on the streets ( no I don't have anyone I cold crash with) but losing the love of my life two years after losing my children?

I feel disgusting like toxic waste is running through my veins and so i relapse and slice but its ok its blood, warm flowing fast and reassuringly red.

WTF do I do as this situation is escalating quickly out of control, neighbours are complaining about the noise and we were all ready 200 short on the rent this month so noise complaints on top of that, we could both be headed back for the streets but if I'm honest I don't mind cos I can cope with that, just not what's happened to the man I love.

thanks for the post. You have a lot on your plate right now, a lot depending on you. I'm sorry for your pain. I wish there was something I could say but maybe you need someone just to listen. If so this is a good place to get it out and get some support.
Peace be safe

No doubt you have a very difficult situation on your hands there, but the person beats you up, and I am sorry but shoving, pushing, will escalate no doubt.

Your description of his needs pains me because it is so classical for a victim to concentrate on an abuser at their own expense. He is mistreating you in the worst ways and you are blaming yourself for not satisfying him?

You see, when I figured out that I could give myself what my ex could not give me he turned into a wild jealous beast despite the fact that I never was with others. To witness such idiotic self love of an abuser and to see how he controls or attempts to control his favorite victim, in this case you, makes me shiver.

Whatever you do, in your long term plans to leave this monster will have to be right on the top of your list. It is possible to love an abuser because there are some traits in a person like that that will make you doubt yourself, but make no mistake, it will be either your life or his.....
 
Sorry I think I f*cked up at the beginning of my post because I didn't clarify that my husband is not one of my abusers, in fact he will be by my side facing them today. Yes the rest of the post was about our marraige and yes the situation is still happening but I'm determined to stick by him as he is a stunningly intelligent wonder full man honestly not a monster.
