I am always getting hurt when my wife talks to me. I am not able to spend quality time with her. I am getting persecutory thoughts that she does not respect/have good opinion about me. What can i do to make my life easy?

I feel like a bother…like today neighbor is taking me to dr. And I have had a very difficult weekend with my husband. What I do is remind myself that my perception may be off cuz of mental illness or remind myself that his choices are his choices and so are consequences. I’m not religious but remember the serenity prayer…it fits for everything
I also do that. I am trying to see it like because of the mental illness i am getting such thoughts. But my subconscious mind does not allow me to like her. It keeps chatting that she is a bad choice and she keeps hurting me. I am not able to control it. I fumble a lot when i am with her all the time. Her existence scares me. I try to reason out that she will not physically hit me or even she will not abuse me. Still negativity exists.
That sux donkey balls. Talk to your dr or therapist. I don’t want to give you bad advice cuz sounds clinically,but 
and We’re here for ya

Thanks for being there for me. I am nervous 24x7. Need lot of time to recuperate. But have the family to take care. So i need to work continuously. No one at this point will understand me. It needs lot of effort from my side to keep working. I am just blindly trusting that i will be able to do things ok. So far i am successful.
Successful…a positive statement . I have to keep myself busy or I’d slip down the rabbit hole​:face_with_symbols_over_mouth:yeah, my two dogs I take care of as if my children. Sometimes it can be really hard to motivate to do stuff…but then I remind myself that I don’t want to be a ■■■■■■■■like my parents! Be strong and focus as best you can and try to take care of not only your family…you, too!
