Walking on egg shells

[MillerGirl05]

Wasn't quite sure what I was doing wrong.   Now that I know there is a name for this I'm actually relieved.   And everything makes sense.   But it doesn't make dealing with his unpredictable outbursts any easier.   He and I obviously do not see things the same and it is so hard to try and not say something to trigger his rage.    If I could convince him to get help, I know that would be one huge step in the right direction but he thinks he is just "sensitive".   He's a recovering alcoholic and thinks there is no "cause", that it was just a fluke unlike so many of the others he went to meetings with who he felt had "reasons" for becoming addicted.   His denial and delusions are profound.   I am open to any ideas or suggestions ?

I am open to any ideas or suggestions ?

Would an initial broad-brush suggestion be OK?

Write. Type it all out, even if it's just topic headers at first. A "brain dump" gives your thoughts some order and allows you to advance your thinking.
