It sounds like you are in a lot of pain.

I think you should definitely insist on H seeing a physician. Tell him you are not qualified to dx his aches and pains and would feel bad if something were really wrong and missed.

I think Sunrise's idea of empathic statements is a great one. Even though he still complained, I think it's a positive frame for handling his complaints. I also think it is awesome that you expressed your feelings to him and made him aware of your children's feelings as well. Go Mom!

It sounds like maybe you are working this through with T. You are practicing with her, working on expressing your needs and getting them met. Keep working it through. You may not see it, but it is very noticeable that you are moving forward.

I'm sorry therapy is so difficult right now. You have my utmost sympathies. And you are never alone!

Peace
