Thank you

You must be a beautiful person to write in on behalf of yourself and your husband, even though he seems unsensitive to you and your emotional needs.  He is not finding problems with you he is only reflecting his own self image problems, but that doesn't mean you should soulder the burden of his emotional delusion.  I am no therapist by any means, but I was a very abused child who grew into a man than treated his wife the same way I was treated.  It was never her I was so angry and nit-picking at, it was always me and my wrong image.  You may want to save him from his depression, but if you do not take care of yourself how could you ever help anyone else.  Like I said before, you must have a special kind of inner beauty to want better for more than just yourself, but for him.  Search yourself and assess your needs!  You are special, I can prove it...I am the world's vainest man (ha ha) and you caught my eye with your inner beauty....I have no idea what you could look like, but what I do see is a caring woman reaching out for the help she deserves....BEAU..TI..FUL!!!  Keep reaching...there are so many like you...with you...you are never alone!!  I'm so proud of women like you, on the verge of discovering your untapped potential of being loved by yourself, first....keep looking for the help and comrads...YOU DESERVE IT !!!! 
Thank you sooooooo much for your response,and congradulations for getting help.I think it takes a REAL MAN to be so honest like that.You are my very first response,ever,from anything.That means alot to me to know that someone cares.And I do want to help my husband,I do realize that I have to take care of myself but I just get so lost in trying to be there for him that sometimes I can't find my way back.But,I will try harder.You must also be a wonderful person to have turned your life around like that,because it's not fun at all when someone you love so much is hurting your feelings and yelling at you all the time.So,kudos to you and again Thank you.
