My husband and I have been talking the last few days and he fails to realize he plays a role in his own behavior. He claims that his behavior is ALL his medicine and that is why he does and says what he says. He claims that he is going to try to get off of his pain medicine and then everything will be okay.

On a positive note, he did talk to my daughter about her not wanting to be around him because he is "mean" and says he is going to make an effort to spend quality, happy time with her. He even praised her about something yesterday and he made sure he pointed it out to me afterward that he said something good to her.
