Mental Health Support

He's angry because my son lived with us and didn't pay rent and did damage and is out of the house now living large and in charge and wanting us to "be proud of him" for all his "hard work" to get his new place set up and his job going well.

We haven't even really been thanked for making that possible. So I swallow my pride and separate both issues and give him kudos and ask for him to get the rest of his crap out of my house. I am ready on that front to move the things in our den out to a storage facility and pay one month's rent and tell him if he doesn't pick it up/make arrangements after that I will authorize the storage facility to auction it off.

So lately no matter what I do my mild mannered hubby is passive aggressively throwing wrenches in my plans or half-assing his assistance.

Like, he will bag up the garbage/recycling and put it on the back deck for me to carry to the alley on my way to the car.


AND I have been asking. All I get is lip service and partial help.

He IS AN ADULT.

He is a smart man.

BUT depression makes people delusional. He is Manic-Depressive, so I have to be careful and not push too hard or we will be in completely different territory.
