Well, two individuals in therapy, can help a relationship, when joint couples counseling isn't financially feasible. Would she be willing to?
Her pointing out 'your' flaws, isn't taking accountability in her own behaviors that she brings to the table.
Trying to save a marriage, takes two willing parties. You sound willing, is she?

Luckily, I've been able to stay out of the sandbox and my PTSD is not combat related.
My wife has no problem telling me when she feels that I've come up short in any area concerning her. I've been guilty of tuning her out in the past and I feel bad for it, but everyone has their limit. When I come to her about how I feel, which is very rare anymore, she gets angry and hurt with me or she says I'm freaking her out.
I've be dx'ed with PTSD, depression, I've got anger issues, so I understand that I can be difficult to deal with sometimes. I feel like I'm way too much personality for a single person. I think she tries to understand me, but I end up usually just feeling more alone after talking to her. I'd like to get it all figured out for my daughter mostly, but I'm afraid that I can't do that with my marriage intacted.
