Hi guys...
Just need to vent and maybe get some tips. Hubby has always had issues with all the places he has worked. Always complaining about someone... Constantly... It's like it's eating up his entire being! And then suddenly one day it stops... And that person is fine again... And I think... Always I think... .Who's next... Within a week... We have someone new who's doing something wrong etc... .It's never-ending! He started a new job before Xmas and all has been going well. They suddenly the manager criticized him... Something small... Something that would have me go oh yeah I understand and get on with my day... .But not for him. The manager is now a b___... .Who is constantly picking on him and is trying to pick a fight with him according to.him. He said it's making him so stressed and he just cannot cope. Such a little criticism just leads to him just falling apart. How can I help? It's seriously causing me so.much anxiety that he may do.something stupid like quit or get angry or get fired! I'm so tired from being so anxious all day long when he is working with this situation... .
Any suggestions?
It sounds like you feel like you have to fix this for him. Why? Does he need you to fix this? Did he ask for help? Are you comfortable just providing validation of his feelings and letting him know that you are there for him if he wants help.Just throwing this out there to see if you have thought about "you" in this situation in addition to him and his problem.
