I thank you for this advice, as I will be consulting a professional tomorrow and will decide with that advice what steps to take to protect myself. Your advice is good and I will keep all of this in mind as I proceed with action to protect my own sanity. I can no longer care for this individual unless he goes into treatment and I doubt that is going to happen. He will not change his behavior, he has made it clear to me that we will not be "making up" this time and I am not inclined to "make up" only to repeat the same cycle and pattern of abuse. I have enabled his abuse of me because i thought that the side affects of his medication should be overlooked becfause I agreed to marry him knowing his illness and his medication. I just didn't realizze to what extent prolonged use of prednisone coupled with repressed anger could affect his behavior so drastically. It is very unfortunate and I am not in a position to be a punching bag any more. Thanks so much for all of your comments and concern too. I really appreciate you ladies for giving me so much to think about and to support me during a very lonely time.
