I'm scared. I'm going for the first time to see a therapist....
I finally decided to go see a therapist. For me. My H and I have been having ups and downs for quite some time now. Totally cannot communicate properly to make our relationship better. I feel as if we/I have these problems that we/I cannot stem away from and it causes us to argue.
I am like way nervous!!! I'm like, what if all of this has been MY problem? I don't know, I have always put this off and said I will go. I have even made appointments yet cancelled them. I don't know exactly what I am afraid of.... But here we go, in just a couple hours... Eeeek

"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." - Dr. SeussThanks girls. I am just going. I decided that I will go and try to better myself here and maybe after a lil bit he will join me. I know it is not all my problems.
He needs work, but I want to try to make myself myself again. I miss me and I miss feeling constant happiness at home. FX I find something out.
I hope I don't start ballin like a baby... Lol, I have become an emotional mess these days...

"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." - Dr. SeussAnd it is hard to make yourself go to that first appointment, but they are so worth it. I am proud of you for being resolved to go!
They will ask what you are there for, and you will tell them and the time will fly by.
"I DO NOT love that you think so many things revolve around you. I know you're bitter. I get it. But I'm over your feelings." The best person on the internet ever!

Thanks again girls.
Well I went and she basically suggested that we just need marriage counseling. I did tell her I wanted to go on my own still. She wants him to come with me on Monday and listen so she can suggest that to him. I do think he will go. He has already agreed to it previously.
It was nice that she didn't make me feel crazy. I may have held back a little of my craziness this first time, but it will all come out shortly...
I think it did help, though, having her being someone who doesn't know either of us and telling me that it is basic problems that hopefully we can get thru.

OMG I am really annoyed now. I mentioned to my H that she suggested marital counseling and he right away asks, "well, what did she say about you?" Like he was hoping she would say I am crazy or something. I told him that was what she suggested and he seems to be mad about this. WTF am I missing here? I went wanting to better myself FOR us and now he is upset that many of my problems stem from our marriage and our communication problems. I am just so hurt with him these days.
Always to point the fingers at me and my wrong doing. I just want us to be happy with each other again and actual friends. What the harm in that?

A Parachute in an Oak Tree: A World of Love
I am starting to wonder if he is checked out. He loves me when I don't speak my mind it seems. I have told him how I feel on numerous occasions. This is what the therapist even said. Then that is when she said we both need to go in together.
I am at the point, to where I just want to do what I can for myself. I am sick of feeling insecure in our marriage. It makes me feel this way in other parts of my life, and I don't even know why sometimes. I am usually a very strong person who was always happy and I used to always find the best in things and people. I somehow have become so pessimistic it is sad and it truly bothers me. What sucks more, I feel that this is all steming from our marriage problems.
If he doesn't want to try and get help then that is that. I will not make him do anything. He can make his own choices. I need to be more selfish. He can call me that all he wants, but I know, when it comes to him and I, I am far far from selfish. I need to worry and take care of myself first. This is what I decided today.
