I will try and keep this on target to the title. We have been married 2 1/2 years dated 6 years. I have many mental health issues, including the worst (suicidal) a few times since we've been together. He has none, or so he says. I have been seeing my T for over 2 years, he's seen one 3 times and hated it, they always point out what is wrong with you then you have to fix it, this is what he says. Anyone in therapy knows this is not necessarly how it should work.

Any ways, he says I will never leave therapy and it is just a 3 ring circus and a big money game, I feel I have come a long way since I started 2 years ago and he even says I have from time to time. He is just tired of waiting for me to stop going. I don't think I am ready to stop.

Our marriage is now going down the tubes. I have repeatedly tried to open up to him, do things my T has asked me to do to help myself and he only gets angry, I think because I stand up for myself at times. I have been trying to get him to go to marriage counseling with me. He won't, although sometimes he gives in and says he will go just to make me happy, but then he never wants to go if I set something up. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can help him understand that this is important me and better for him and I plus our son? He already knows I am unhappy in the marriage and don't want it to end, and he needs to step up and help our marriage. It takes two not just me. Any suggestions??
