hi logan,
I know what you are talking about. I can't even take my husband kidding about my shortcomings that are attributable to my ADD, anxiety or depression. I had to tell him to play straight with me and my eight year daughter. That it wasn't funny. He has difficulty with expressing anger so he resorts to what he is thinking is humor. He jokes about himself also which I wish he wouldn't do, but that is his choice. I grew up in a home with sarcastic humor and meanness so we need to be kind and gentle in my home. He is finally getting it. Thanks for the opportunity to clarify this for myself. I am off to Phillie for a week.
