bad day
I'm having a ton of anxiety today. My SS22 was married this weekend and that's all over. My husband was acting like a ass and SD 15 was visiting so he of course spent the entire time catering to her and treating me like the plague. Plus he was on steroids due to an illness, which made him be a super jerk. I felt like he was laying in wait for me to say anything that he could pounce on.
Last night my DH kept up the jer routine and when he asked where his cell was, I said I had no idea...he called me horrible names (the c word) and raised his hand at me several times like he was going to hit me? WTF...this isn't him. Later after that was over he berated me about not buying any snack cakes at the grocery. I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
I'm so overwhelmed today waiting for the next shoe to drop and I'm dredding going home.
It's been crazy. He's even
It's been crazy. He's even quoted conversations back that we never had and put words in my mouth...like he thought it therefore it was real. I waited until he went to sleep last night, packed a bag for him, woke him up and told him to get out until he could act like a decent human being.
^^^^this exactly. "Roid Rage"
^^^^this exactly. "Roid Rage" is a very real and can be a potentially dangerous situation. The Dr. SHOULD be notified especially if he still has some time he needs to be on the prednisone.
He's on prednisone for double
He's on prednisone for double pneumonia.
He's an ass in general, but not like this. I'm sure it's the steroid, plus he was off of his thyroid med for two weeks and that makes him cranky as well. He just kept ranting that he couldn't stand me and was sick of me over and over.
Prednisone does cause alot of this type of behavior. Unfortunately, my first husband was a horrible alcoholic and toward the end was extremely abusive. As a result I have PTSD so I'm not really in a stable position when things turn like this.
He's coming off of it now.
He's coming off of it now. Instead of the regular burst pack that they give with antibiotics, he was on 60mg a day for 3 days and then 40 for 3 day, then 20 for three days, 10 for 3 days and then 5 for a week.
The thyroid issue doesn't help. His personality is sarcastic and he's a big baby, thanks to my MIL. When you add illness, medication issues and steroids, he's a total jerk.
I mean really, he called me the "C" word. He's lucky to be alive. If I hadn't been so shocked he wouldn't be.
^^^Same here.
^^^Same here.
Hmm sounds like doctors
Hmm sounds like doctors should place anyone on that medication in a institution while they are on it! With or without him being on medication, please don't allow him to be abusing you- you do not deserve that from anyone for any reason ever.
Update on the bad day...last
Update on the bad day...last night he was sleep walking and talking out of his head. I shook his arm to try to wake him and he said I was trying to shove him and he was out of his mind mad. I let him lay down and fall asleep and then banished him to the spare bedroom.
...OH...He's seeing the Dr
...OH...He's seeing the Dr tonight.
I had never heard of 'roid
I had never heard of 'roid rage' before, thanks for the heads up. DH is doing chemo right now and it's making him cranky. He's never lifted his hands, too smart for that...there's a bunch of bullshit that goes with a domestic abuse charge and he knows I'd call the cops! My exH lifted his hands to me and I have ZERO tolerance for it.
WTH!! Doctors straight away,
WTH!! Doctors straight away, I understand that it may be the 'rod rage' but he should not speak to his wife like that.
No one should raise their hand to their partner, ever regardless of sex. You need to sit him down about this or it WILL get worse. Same thing happened with my DH, he's gone from never doing it to saying he 'i want to punch you in the fucking face right now' in the most vicious of ways, and this over NOTHING. So stupidly I provoked, and provoked and (luckily) he didnt do it, so I told him if he evr speaks to me or signals any BS like that he will have to be quick coz there will be a body bag coming and it wont have my name on it. And I am deadly serious.I have had partner hit me before and I will never let anyone think that they can do this to me. And you as a strong woman need to install this into his head, speak to me like shit and I will chuck you out like shit.no negotiation.
