The Darling Wife has decided that I need to move out of the house so she and I can get our respective shit in order, so here I am, a 49 year old man living with his mother. Brandy and Keeni moved with me. I’ve got some of my stuff out of the house and I’m working on getting the rest.
Among other things, it seems my drugs aren’t working as well as I thought they were. The Darling Wife, and to a lesser amount, every one else that deals with me day to day just stopped telling me I was being angry and yelling.
So, I’m off Geodon and on to 10mg Zyprexa in the morning. Zyprexa is the stuff caused my latest weight gain, however I’m not sure if it’s going to work on the anger/rage issues. I suspect I’ve got some talk therapy in my future. I see my doctor next Wed. I sure hope I can get this fix sooner, rather than later, because I can’t live like this for very long.

I am a 49 year old wife whose husband has a drinking and drug problem (refuses to get help, says he doesn’t like group thins). Oh, and he doesn’t have a job, doesn’t want a job, doesn’t try to find a job. I have a job that was cut 10% of salary (California Furlough program).
It is my house, my cat, and my debt. If I can get him to pay a few dollars, I will be lucky. I am ready to call it quits and move on.
Oh, and my car decided to be in need of $750. dollars of repair or it won’t be able to drive me to work.
My life sucks more.

Dear Tamula, wish I could help , I can almost relate to your situation. My wife of 17 years hasn’t told me she loved me in a year, hasn’t made love with me in 6 months and hasn’t kissed ME in 5 months. She has turned our three kids against me and she now sleeps in the living room. She is mentally and verbally abusive.( whats a “no hit ” guy supposed to do ? ) I think she is waiting for me to have an affair or something. She does not work. She does not want to. Let me know how you make the next move because I don’t know what to do. Stay the strong woman you are. I can tell you have strength. I know that talking probably doesn’t help much any more. Lord knows I have talked until I am blue in the face. What is a nice person to do next ? My life sucks too. A member in good standing since 2007
