People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
I had a friend (whose now Ex) did 5 suicide attempts. My friend suffered enormously through this thinking his partner had seriously tried taking his life....
No, he hadn't- his ex partners stories all fell apart... It took my friend absolute the most awful experiences to realise that his partner was using these "suicide" bids to lie and to manipulate my friend's feelings and to actually put fear in his life.

Nobody can tell you what to do but please speak to your Gp, tell your GP what is happening...

You are being used as a Carer, not as a Partner, Lover, Wife....

Good luck with it. Have you found someone to talk to? As your husband will still try and manipulate you and you don't need that.

I still think you need a professional of some sort who knows about living with a man like you husband. And support you.
