I am having trouble with my wife/life. After reading a few of your episodes I have realized that I am someone who doesn’t honor my own boundaries. I continue to feel disrespected by many people and I don’t know what to do about it. To compound my problems my wife is continually an irrational thinker with anxiety. I cant have a discussion with her containing a differing opinion with out it devolving into a fight. Currently she wants to have amother child and I am concerned about the health of our relationship. She doesn’t think there is a problem and feels as though her opinion is not being validated. She told me she didnt want to strong arm me into this decision and the conversation ended with me being strong armed into agreeing with her. She has on occasion been emotuonally abusive to me. We are currently seeing the same therapist (not at the same time) and this therapist feels strongly that my wife is one of the few that can change her behaviour. I do acknowledge that she has improved and that the process will be slow. What I am Not sure of is what I can do in the interim to keep my sanity.
