Please tell me how to speak to DH and what words to use where he understands that he is not the only person with feelings? I feel like I am loosing my mind. I feel Emotionally abused and my abuser is making himself out to be the victim. HOW do you respond in a way that ADHD hyper Husband can understand??????? DH demands daily sex, with holds money, shares no details of our finaince, we have had to declare bankrupsy, he gambled, he has refused to make house payment or car payment, any day now I expect people come foreclose. We had big fight last night, I suffer PTSD, he choose to excalate and push buttons, so I am screaming. He comes home for lunch ask what do you want to do tonight??? I told him our daughter wanted to go to sparks but I did not have enough gas in car to take her there & back & to school tom. He wants me to beg him for money, so he can act like he has done this grand gesture, that I would owe him for.......He makes it very clear that HIS feelings are only ones he concerned about and he wants a medal & reward for behaving as a responsible adult. I don't get it. I just told him to leave and that I would not have conversation with him without professional in room with us. Hes convienced he is the abused victim, but he is the one that if I do not meet his demands of sex everyday, is hatefull and says that I am disobedient wife and abusing him. I have absolutly know idea how to talk to DH God gave me and it is destroying me emotionaly and physicaly.........
ADHD Husband feelings, wants & desires always first

It hurts to read your post!

I'm no Doctor, but some things are obvious!
You are in a very unhealthy relationship with your husband...PTSD can be brought on by the Sex...Demanded Sex even in the bounds of marriage can created anxiety...It's abuse,...I'm not saying benevolence in the physical form shouldn't be happening...Because it should...But, benevolence is about honoring your vow's and giving yourself, not having demands placed on you....And the anxiety should not be there.
Based on your post...It is clear the action's you say are his aren't the fruit of a Loving Heavenly Father. I can't tell you how to live, but, I will tell you what I think, what I did and do. Based on your post, his very presence is causing you stress...I've been there....If I were you, I would stop engaging any thing he says are does that is not a stable, and/or loving comments...You must get a hold of your own life, and make decisions that is right for you....I love my wife very much, but because of her life style I would be just like you, and have been just like you when I was focusing on my expectations of responsible adult behaviors and conversations....She can't follow well which creates frustrations quickly which just escalates into interruptions, anger etc...STAY-A-WAY from what you know is going to go down hill fast! I suggest you get a job if you do not have one, and depend on yourself....You cannot depend on a Gambler, and poor money manager...That, along with the hiding is just another load of stress for you....You have to back away, have your own life, and manage it wisely...If you love your husband, the very best think you can do for him, is to take control of your own life. Then maybe you can become an example for him...Plus, when you quit allowing him to manipulate, and abuse you if he hit's the road, then you will be set to continue on with your life.
A wife is something to be cherished!
I will pray for you!
My husband once told me that

My husband once told me that in his mind, he comes first. Not me or our child, just himself. And he lives like it but then denies it and tries to say he considers us. It's like he's saying point blank, the world revolves around ME, but I'm going to try and gaslight you and make you feel guilty for what I do, anyway.
What was your H's response to your email?

<<< I am 42, add, wife, suffering from ptsd, with adhd, hyper sex drive, husband and we are Blended family. We have been on crazy making, circular communication, unable to resolve conflict for 3-4 years now and I have to get off the crazy train. I have been told that if I would just be a Godly wife, and say yes to sex every time it is requested all, our problems would be solved I just sent my DH this email and was wanting some feedback, Thanks! excuse spelling LOL!<<
You sent your husband an email almost a year ago. What was his response?
