Voicelessness and Emotional Survival > Voicelessness and Emotional Survival Message Board

Hello~newbie here!

<< < (2/2)

JD:
:D Thanks to you both for the warm welcome here~ I appreciate being able to let everything out! :mrgreen: It's a very free-ing feeling, isn't it?
I was afraid this board was all about narcissism, and nothing else, but since I'm not sure just exactly what that is, I was happy to find this board was titled simply "voicelessness & emotional survival"...because that's what I felt I needed more than anything sometimes! (am I making any sense here?)
My H says I'm over-sensitive sometimes, but I guess that's just the way it goes~being an artist, I have a great sensitivity to detail & it carries over into just about all other areas of my life as well...
I hope I didn't leave the wrong impression about him here; he & I get along pretty much 99% of the time~ we really do have great fun together, and having a large family, we mostly are happy to be busy with all that~ it's just sometimes he can make me crazy, I suppose like most husbands will, eh?...but I also suppose that I can have the same effect on him! :wink:
Anyway,~ I also wanted to say 'welcome' to you also, Learning...I hope you are able to find your own voice in these boards...and maybe we can go on learning together, eh? :D

Hiya JD, have you done one of those personality tests, do you know what ‘type’ you are and all that stuff? I found out recently I’m an introvert and it’s changed my views about what’s okay for me. Like a lot of what I thought might be a problem, isn’t, it’s just different. Would this help do you think or have you done this type of thing? P

JD,

Your husband doesn't sound like a full-blown N. He may have narcissistic tendencies (entitlement, dominance, sulking, moodiness) but that is workable. Sounds like his moodiness is most of the problem. This could be dealt with in various ways: (1) he could see a doctor and get anti-depressants; (2) you could become slightly more thick-skinned and ignore him more often, or stand up to him; (3) you could both go to marriage counseling but probably you have no time for that!

You have 8 children, why isn't one of them making dinner?!!
