So last night me and my husband got into an altercation with our words and we discussed some of my depression and my feelings... well umm last night I said to him that it was so much easier before I married him when I was dating girls he looked at me all confused and I explained to him that the reason I said that is because when I dated girls it was easier to express and talk about my feelings and emotions because girls listen better and it’s better communication and we know how each other feels as girls and how we know what girls like. I told him I don’t want to be with a girl because I want him but I just needed him to understand that depression and anxiety is real that it’s nothing to play with and that I needed him but that I felt like he kept choosing cigs and other things over me. It’s more to this story and I want someone to talk to but I don’t want to be a bad person and I don’t want to bother anyone with my problems. 😢😢 I just want to cry. 😢😢

Do you feel the talk was effective? Did you resolve anything?

I’m not really sure, every time I talk to to him about something he listens for a few days than it just goes back to how it was.

I have GAD, and I’ve been having really high anxiety for the past month. I understand what you’re going through, feel free to msg me if you need to talk. ❤️

no, sorry. To help distract myself fictional audio books really helped me when it was really bad. I would really recommended finding a good therapist and giving CBT a go if you haven’t before. It changes your way of thinking and, like I said before, gives you coping mechanisms. She dragged up a lot of stuff from my past (most of it to do with my mum and my self esteem issues caused by the emotionally damaging games she played with me) which made me see a few things in my behaviour a lot more clearly and relieved me of unnecessary guilt

Not all women understand other women’s problems, and I can see why your husband would be confused by what you said. All sexes of relationships can understand depression, anxiety and how their partner thinks with proper communication and the work needed.
Have you thought about speaking with a councillor? I’m here too if you need to chat ☺️😍

@meganreid121915, I get that I’m just saying not all women listen better then men, and maybe he just needs some guidance.
And I meant speaking with a councillor together, as that may really help with some guidance and tools to help him understand the things your wanting him to about depression and anxiety.

he won’t do it and I’m tired of trying to get him to do stuff with me and to listen to me. I shouldn’t have to beg my own husband to listen to me or help me or do stuff with me as I really love him. I just hope that someday he will understand

That sucks! It may really help him to understand what you need of him and what your going through.
