Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
and can't get off. I have been crying all day - maybe PMS or lack of sleep but he has pushed me to this point and I hate him for it.
I have been married for 10+ years and have a wonderful little 6 year old boy who is just amazing.
He is very sensitive and my husband can't seem to get that through his thick skull. He eggs him on and they fight like children sometimes.
My husband drinks and does other things and when he comes down he can be down right nasty.
Yesterday started out great - we decorated the tree - he started a fire in the fireplace and we had a nice relaxing day.
After he ran out of whatever he was drinking - he became nasty and after my son cried over something silly - he went off and took it out on me and him - not physically - but he just got so angry and said he needed to grow up and stop acting like a baby.
He says that I have turned him into a sissy and I need to stop babying him.
I hate him more each day and he is wearing away at my soul. I am scared to leave because of his erratic behavior.
I never ever thought I would be in this situation and I have a friend going thru something similar - we talk a lot which helps.
But - it just cannot go on like this - I know it is easy for people to say just get out. I am an educated, strong person and I still am scared to leave. Not because I don't want to be alone -that would be a blessing - but I am worried about his state of mind and what he would do - it could get very ugly.
Sorry to ramble - I am just in one of those miserable moods
Thanks for listening.

I know what you mean about building up resentment. That's what happens to me every time I date anyone. Everyone says "Leave the bastard" but then, I find another bastard and the cycle continues. So I don't think leaving is the answer. I have just started reading a very good book on the matter, called "You Don't Have to Take it Anymore" by Steven Stosny PhD. It is about why people behave this way, the core reason, and it doesn't try to get you to band aid the situation like most counselors do by helping you appease the angry man in your life. I am putting a lot of hope in what I learn from this book because I cannot go on knowing that no matter how many times I leave these men, I will find another one just like him.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
