Hi there mc05
Thank you for your post and also welcome to B.B.
This is an interesting and tricky situation that you’ve described.
With regard to how your wife is toward you, that’s a difficult situation for us to comment on – but I can understand when you say that you feel you can’t talk to her about your feelings, as she is saying that she is feeling like she is being picked on. This is one of the things that can be experienced in relationships – where the sufferer does want to open up and talk about how they feel, but by doing this, it can affect the relationship and the other person. We’re not meaning for this to happen, but by wanting to open up, things can come out of our mouths that can be hard to hear for our partners and may unintentionally cause tensions.
My thoughts on this would be to see if you can get back to your doctor and to see if they’re able to recommend a suitable psych or counsellor for you to go see. In this regard, you can have someone who you can unload to and talk to about all that you feel is troubling you and not be worried about possible repercussions from this. As doing it that way it’s strictly confidential, but also, you’re talking to someone who is qualified in this sort of thing and hopefully they’re able to provide you with some helpful advice and suggestions.
This was just my own thoughts/suggestion on your post, I hope it’s helped even in a small way.
Neil
