There's never a word of support or empathy that comes out of his mouth. It's just yelling at me. I was feeling pretty strong about all of this - until he tore me down. Now I just want to crawl into bed.

My therapist is pressuring me to get a job. I don't know where she's coming up with that one. For one thing, my husband and I have had an online business for 12 years and I work at that. We actually get along best when we're working together. I was at my last job for 13 years. I'm exhausted from working since I was 14 years old. Plus, I'm on disability and don't want to lose it.

I'm by myself now (with my 5 cats); I'm going to work on regaining the optimism I felt this morning. I resent being stomped on by people who should be supportive.

Popsicles all around - in your favorite flavor!
I'm so sorry about your Fur Baby Your Husband is just a miserable jackA**

My T nor Pdoc has ever suggested I need to go back to work . between Bipolar and my chronic pain we just could never see that working out. Hopefully your T will just stop this nonsense and help you work on the chronic anxiety and ways to help you deal with it.
