Reader’s question
I am writing this raw and wiping my tears after yet another chat with my young kids to explain that: “Daddy didn’t mean to get so mad. Daddy still loves ye and loves me. He just sometimes can’t take being busy and gets angry. Daddy didn’t mean to shout and say those horrible things to us.”
You see, their daddy – my husband – suffers from depression and unfortunately when he feels under pressure his anxiety comes out as anger and we, as his family living with him, have to bear the brunt of it.
He does see a doctor and is taking medication and openly discusses his depression and anger with me and his doctor so that is why these ‘episodes’ are not constant.
