I am a master at silent treatment because I become so overwhelmed or frustrated with a situation that I just do not want to discuss it anymore. I am not being abusive. Maybe you husband needs help with dealing with his emotions and a way on how to handle them instead of shutting everyone off.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
