My girlfriend is not a morning person add the fact she was getting ready for work. So i have anxiety, depression, bi polar and low impulse control. I don't react to getting yelled at very well. It's like my brain stops working when I am getting yelled at. So this morning she Is yelling at me and I just woke up and I am of course tired. So she is telling me to make her coffee, get her lunch together. Then she tells me make her tea to go. She is yelling at me so I accidentally give her hot water and milk. So she calls me from her job and says to me "You are a dead man." Now is it just me or is that an overreaction. She does this a lot. Something minor happens like I accidentally tap her with my leg/foot I don't wanna call it kicking but she does. Something else minor happens and she threatens me with some form of bodily harm. Her favorites are "I will shove it up your ass." and "I will punch you in the face." Now again Is it just me or is that a overreaction. The other thing is she uses certain words incorrectly. Her faves are redecorate, now and kick. Like i said earlier if i tap her by accident she says i kicked her. Her version of redecorating is putting something down for 5 minutes. How she uses now frustrates me the most. Now to me means doing one thing at a time. She says to me do the dishes NOW, clean this mess NOW. How am i supposed to do the dishes in the kitchen and clean a mess in the living at the same time. If someone could tell me how to do that I am listening. If she doesn't wanna do something she uses her favorite phrase "I work and you don't." Now I cannot work because of my issues. She knows this. I have low self esteem as it is. So when she says that my self esteem gets even lower. I bring it up to her that i feel this way doesn't seem to always stop her from saying it. She also says that she is the dude in the relationship. i asked her where she gets it from she says because she is the one that works and i don't. Now i am on SSI so i do bring in money i actually between my food stamps and SSI bring in more money. She keeps using the word traditional and i keep saying to her what about us makes up traditional. So according to her i should work and she should keep house because that's tradition. So if she wants to stick to tradition she shouldn't yell at me over stupid shit. God forbid i ask her to do dishes one or two times a week if i ask i stopped asking by the way. I am sick of hearing because she works she "is the dude." and she could sit on her ass and do nothing. I have never heard of this before someone using the fact that they work and the other person before. Please people i need your help.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Everything you have mentioned in your post is I'm sure not an exaggeration. She is for sure overreacting and in my opinion has anger issues. You need to seek help and support elsewhere and a way out of this abusive relationship. Do you have friends or family you can turn to in order to move out of her place and out of her life? If you don't have those options I'm sure there are ways for the gov't to support your want to find an apartment on your own.
There are options available, you just have to do your research.
Good luck to you!
The next time she says she is the "Dude" kick her in the balls! ( just joking, but wouldn't it be great?)
Also it's really stupid to yell and scream at someone who is preparing something you are going to eat... just sayin... lol
She treats you like a slave! Better to live with your parents then with her.
