Hi, I hope you don’t mind me jumping on your post. My husband struggled with cocaine addiction and has been clean 6 months. Some of the things he put me through are sickening and still fill me with anger and devastation. I have outbursts every so often but it’s all the pain I’ve pushed aside. I think the reason they can’t acknowledge it and pretend to be almost oblivious to the suffering they’ve caused you is because they can’t admit to themselves the monsters they were. It’s easier to shut it out and not think about it. If they understand it they have to admit to themselves. Your not crazy and your feelings are totally valid.
