Husband m (31) gets angry when i’m f(26) sad.
(Been together for 5 years).
Today i talked to him about feeling a little depressed because i have sciatica so i cant workout as i usually do. The gym has been so great for my anxiety and helped me in so many ways. He got angry saying i should be happy it’s not something more serious, and asked me why i m digging my self down being sad over it, and that i can still workout.
I told him that it’s sad that i cant push myself like i used to and i will still workout, it just makes me sad. And i told him that im not pushing myself all the way down i am letting myself feel that i am sad. He got angry because i twisted his words about me pushing myself down, which i did because i got stressed.
Now he does not talk to me.
How can i communicate better on this? I am not trying to make him feel like he has to fix things i just wanted to talk about my feelings.
