I think Annie is right. He sounds like an ***. He may benefit from counseling although sometimes/most of the time it's really hard to get someone that thinks they know everything to go somewhere to hear their ignorance exposed. I would start taking steps to protect yourself mentally and financially. It's just a good idea.
I would venture OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). Read into it, it might surprise you how many symptoms he has. Remember it's a spectrum disorder meaning, it can range from mild to severe. It is definitely definitely something I would look into. It's progressive with age and does not get better in it's own, only worse. If this is not the man you used to know, then he might be stowing in a disease. Get him help. Get yourself support so you can learn how to help properly. B****ing at him will solve nothing as he is most likely completely unaware if his condition. Hope this helps! One love
He is an ***. He is probably not mentally ill. Not all bad behavior is caused by mental illness. He would probably benefit from therapy as you can learn different behavior but I doubt he would agree to it. Instead, you should go to therapy to learn how to either deal with it or leave.
He does try to control me in every way that he can and gets mad when he cant get his way. He likes to have his beer starting in the afteroon and up until 5 when he comes in the house and starts closing up everything. He sits thenon the back patio and waits on supper. He gets mad if supper is late because I go somewhere with my daughter and dont get back in time to fix his supper. I cannot do anything right for him. Most of his suppers are served to him either on the patio or in front of the tv. I am his waitress for everything he needs without getting up. What do you think could be wrong with him?
He sounds really controlling. :/ While some of that could be caused by bipolar, that doesn't excuse his behavior. You deserve better than that.
