Hi,
Good to see boundaries even though it’s so tough to do , and hopefully writing here has helped you reinforce those boundaries
… I haven’t been able to keep my boundaries for long, struggling to understand why but think it’s to do with my own lack of self worth ????
It’s all coming home to roost for me now, both my physical and mental health is shot ..I wish I could go back 5 years when I almost left him….I should have done.
How do you cope living with him? I find it so hard as my husband is very beligerant – which I am learning to ignore , but I cannot ignore how vulnerable he is when he is totally wasted – unsteady on his feet , and like he has dementia so I am there trying my best to keep him safe whilst he is also saying the most hurtful things trying to goad me into an argument.
I hope I can set my own boundaries soon and be mentally free even if have to still live with him
