My mood swings have been held in for years and now I feel like I am out of control. Never realizing that holding in emotions could be so damaging to myself. Living with a man that would not let me because of what he was going through in his life. Now he wants to make or mariage work and now I am afraid that to make the mariage work I am going have to hold in my emotions again and I feel I can't do that. My mind is telling me I need to cry and show my anger at times just so I can be me. Then he will just tell me that it is over or say hurtful things to me. I am so confused right now that I do not know what to do.

Hi,

Holding in emotions that need to be released is probably not good. Next time you feel an outburst coming on. Gently tell him, you need to think about things, get your coat on and take a 20 minute walk, the cool air will feel good, you can blow off steam and the exercise will increase the endorphins in your body that makes you feel happy.

It takes two people wanting to make a relationship work. The true test of determining whether your partner want to make the marriage work is to set up a time with a counselor. If he refuses, then chances are he doesn't see any reason to improve on himself and thinks you need make all the necessary changes to make it work.

Finally, find support from your family and friends that will support both of you and give you both the encouragement you need to make it work.

Good luck and God Bless.

Elaine.
