You need to talk to someone. You are dealing with some symptoms that you can't do anything about. The only thing that you can really do is take care of yourself and your kids. I have just been down a horrible path with a husband that was diagnosed with alcoholism and major depression. He drank to feel better-didn't work. He was always angry and blamed everyone for his unhappiness. He came home, went downstairs and then said our marriage was bad. It wasn't; the depression was. I know exactly how you feel. It is a long lonely road for awhile but somehow it gets better when you let the power go and take control.

I am in need of some advice regarding my husband.I dont know whether i overreact to situations or if he is the one with the problems.He comes home from work has dinner sits on the lounge and thats where he stays until he goes to bed he only helps with the kids if i give him the'look' or i start ranting at him.He dosnt help with any sort of cleaning around the house his dirty clothes sit on the bedroom floor i have started picking them up and putting them in a pile at the bottom of his wardrobe but then he whinges when he has no clean clothes to wear.He drinks alot and is a compulsive liar and wonders why i am always angry with him.Am i being unreasonable to want him to help with the kids and support me when im feeling down instead of getting angry and abusing me.Im sure i have tried every avenue to get him to help me more he wont go to marriage counselling(hes not the one with the problem)so at the moment we are living like flatmates not husband and wife does anyone have any ideas im so sick of being angry.Thanks.
