Hi ,do you think I would be normal when your husband has been away for 2 days with work and then coming home and for me to get anxiety?
We have two kids 15 and 11 and I work 4 days a week ,the 3 of us look at it as a break from him because he can be moody ,are we being mean about it.

Hi Moggy23
I wouldn't say it's mean. Maybe you're all just sensitive to feeling the same feelings, so the 3 of you can simply relate to how each other feels or what each other senses. Why you're husband's moody is a whole other matter. Whether what you're feeling relates to him perhaps feeling depressed or maybe being narcissistic or perhaps feeling fed up with himself or something entirely different, I imagine you have some sense of what it's about.
As a mum to an 18 and 20yo, the 3 of us are pretty sensitive. We can be sitting around the dinner table and all feel a questionable comment from my husband/their father. We'll give each other a knowing look, knowing we're all sensing the same feeling. I smile when I say it's like you're member of a secret club of sensitives/feelers, where you don't have to say a word, you just know what each other's feeling/thinking at any given time.🙂
