That after I had the panic attack over the weekend I knew I had left too soon. He said something about I need to do what I need to do. But I could hear disdain in his voice. Damn it. I should have waited til he was home before I told him but it just kinda came out before I could stop it.

Now I'm questioning myself. Maybe I can still go in there Thursday and apologize and tell her I made a mistake calling her and I should not have come back. I don't know what I am doing.

Why can't I just stand up to him and tell him this is what I want?!

How do others with spouses that don't want them in therapy deal with this? Am I wrong to want both? Am I wrong to want to be the best me I can be for him, for our marriage, for our son?

Why do I feel so defective right now?
I'm not married and have been single forever....but if he can't support you being in therapy, then I'd be like "Well i am sorry, but this is my decision, so screw you!"

(okay probably not the last bit, i would just think that )
Thanks for this!
