Nikki,
Don't mean to be intrusive, but it sounds like your husband needs BADLY to be educated. Some of we males have a tendancy to be insensitive to the needs of others (sorry guys....). I was raised in a female dominated family, and learned not only to respect the needs women, but people as a whole. Your number one responsibility is to yourself first. You have to take care of you before you can take care of others. If your husband doesn't understand that, that's too damn bad! I hope you do whatever is right for you, and only you can make that decision. We all care about you out here, and will be here for support if you need us. Remember, you are your own "Magic Fairy", start waving that wand!BIG Hugs,
Greg> OK.. Well, I honestly, very much believe, I do want to leave my husband. I am fed up of being put down, talked down to, being told how useless I am, and also - when trying to epxlain how I feel, being told I have nothing to be depressed about.

> The thing is, I don't know how to do it. We've only been married 4 1/2 months, and I know I'm going to get alot of hassle for doing it, lose alot of people close to me because of it, lose my home and bed.

> I feel stuck between two awful things, neither of which I can face fully. But then I'm worried that it's the depression and everything making me feel like this, and I should stick it out.

> Does anyone else want a magic fairy to come and wave a magic wand.. That seems the only way out of this right now. I so, so desperately want to be happy, but my husband says "like it or lump it"... Will I ever feel happy again??
