He has strained relationships with his family. He thinks they're all crazy people, which they are. His parents were functioning alcoholics, his mother had episodes of violence and hitting the kids, his dad was just not there emotionally. His father was a cop and his mother was an ER night shift nurse for 40 years. He's had a good friend tell him a few years ago that he was intimidated by dh and my dh took that so personally. He has a VERY strained relationship with a few people at work. He takes everything very personally and thinks that everyone is trying to take advantage of him or hurt him in some way. He has his defenses up all the time.
He is currently in a depressive episode right now and he knows that I'm really struggling with dealing with him lately because of his passive aggressive behavior so things have been quite strained around here lately. We are both seeing therapists and he supposed to be getting an evaluation with a psychiatrist soon to investigate possible meds.
