Yeah, I'm not sure what to think about some of her behavior. I'm so confused that I think this makes my own anxiety so much worse. I knew our marriage wasn't in a great spot, but we were moving forward - recently bought a house being a good example. She dropped a lot of this out of the blue. It took about a month and a half before she said she needed a break from us for the rest of the year, but I could tell she was emotionally detaching.
She basically said I had to start seeing a therapist, which I have been go to and getting a lot from. I feel I've grown a lot on dealing with the issues she wanted me to. However, it has done nothing to help repair our relationship and in fact seems to get worse.
As for her not feeling in an emotional safe spot (this is what she has told me), she was so worried that if she brought up anything negative I would "do something stupid", which for her means hurt or try suicide. For me, I would have been sad, but responsive for us working on our relationship if I knew what she was feeling. I would have and still will do anything for her and our marriage. Now I feel she is completely withdrawn.
