Dear Adrienne:

Seeing a quality counselor is a good idea and an excellent use of money! When self help and self care are not enough.. it is a good plan.

* Did you try and if you did, maybe you can retry, at this time, before counseling, relaxing guided meditations, daily brisk walks, a yoga class and such?

Regarding your husband, I personally refer to his attitude or mindset as “Teflon”, not letting other people’s (mis)behavior stick. It works for him somewhat, I suppose, keeping himself calm. Problem is it leads to dysfunction, and in this case, if it wasn’t for your …non-Teflon attitude, to a greater loss of money.
