I know it's probably not healthy but I have tried so much and so hard this past few months to be heard and I have gotten nowhere. He won't go to the counseling. Feel is painful but I'm mostly stuffing them down because it keeps my household happy. He is happy when I'm not nagging him about my needs, I can be a better mother when I'm not preoccupied by trying to get my needs met. So I'm just trying to make my family happy. Fake it till you make it, right?
