You DON'T deal with this. He needs treatment for a clear psychological disorder, but that doesn't mean you need to stay with a guy whose mental state freaks you out
I couldn’t offer you any insight into what he may have going on mentally as I am not a mental health professional, however I do strongly advise you to take comments like “I am going to beh*ad you” and…
I’m SUPER proud of you, I think your ability to advocate for yourself and leave when your safety felt threatened is absolutely amazing. I had a therapist for almost 4 years who said she was trauma a…
If she’s throwing it back at you and saying, you’re the one who needs psychiatric help, maybe just agree and say that you will go, but you both go to marriage counseling together. I do think this is s…
The high mental state is hard for the brain, I guess. And it comes with other effects which would make regular life harder (like chores and small tasks).

True! Manifestation is instant, and it comes from the I AMness as a fundamental state of conscious presence. We manifest from identity (I am) !
For me, in no particular order - 1) whatever the thing is, focus more effort on doing than thinking about doing. Those of us with depression waste a lot, and I do mean a lot of energy that we could …
I could have written this post at some point. Not now, but also not that long ago either. I still live with some shame, but I am much better now and so is my marriage. One thing that clicked in my hea…
