I feel so broken
I dont know what to do anymore. I feel so lost and broken. My husband has been amazing but he wants more than I feel I can give right now. I'm having medical issues and on top of that have a lot of issues stemming from abuses suffered when I was a child. He knows all of this and he respects it, and he never ever pushes me to do something I don't want to do, but I feel like I am keeping him from living his best life because I'm broken.

I'm sorry your struggling right now. I too felt broken for a long time. I started seeing a therapist and it changed my life for better. I'm still working on my abusive past and dealing with PTSD. I read a lot of books about abuse/ healing from it.
Your a brave strong person, be good to yourself and know that time helps .
Best always ABB 💜
Thanks, mainly just dealing with a lot of the after effects of the abuse, but my husband and I made a change to our lives early this year and it has caused me to confront a lot of the issues that I ignored or didn't even realize I had. It has been tough and thankfully my husband has supported me through all of it.
I'm right there with you in my current relationship and it is hard! But when you really love someone you will work hard to be your best self, and they will work hard to accept you along the way and support you! I have had people leave because I was "too much to deal with." Depression and bipolar disorder can take a toll on everyone you're around. It is very hard, but you have to put in the work with someone who is willing to work with you. It's a team effort, you two vs. the problem. Not you vs. him.
Thanks, I think I got really lucky when I married this man 16 years ago. But as we get older and our kids are growing up we are trying to find ourselves again and im finding I have more issues than I thought. Thankfully he is supporting me completely and helping me as much as he can, and if I don't feel up to doing something we don't do it.
