Desperate and at the end

Hello,

Well, this is unexciting and miserable.
My wife has started a pretend we're separated routine with me.

Won't sleep next to me, makes excuses why. All of which can be managed and fixed.
It feels like she wants to end it all with me because of my failed behaviour.

Apparently, I have ADHD, anxiety and I mouth off, which is terrible for her.

Breaks my heart.
I'm doing everything I know and have been taught to be calm and quiet now.

But still avoids me so badly.
This hurts me a lot.
I keep asking if she wants to end it.

She won't because she knows how much she'll lose.

It just kills me.

I'm going to see someone about my mental health asap and do whatever they say.
Begging her to come back to me and work on us.

All seems hopeless.

I'm on the edge of breaking, lost my job last week through no fault of my own, just bad people doing bad things, illegally.

I can't keep this up.

I've begged her to try more and be with me and she'll see it's ok.

Anyway at my wits end

Hello RichoC

 

I'm sorry that you're struggling, it can all seem too much sometimes. I think that it's really good that you're reaching out to get help and that you're are prepared to work on yourself and your marriage. I think that there is still hope for your marriage. Doing the right things, giving it some time and having patience can still make it all good. I think it's very important to listen to your wife, try to understand the way she feels, explain how you feel and work together on making things better in a polite, accepting, respectful and patient way.

 

I hope things will get better for you, please let us know how you're coping
