Anxiety and guilt
Posted , 4 users are following.
I am hypersensitive and want to know if anyone else is like this. I cry so easily and feel so sensitive when someone says something critical. I try to be so nice to everyone so I wouldn't have to hear negativity toward myself. Obviously it's impossible . I just want to please and my kids , I have four of them are growing g up and Ijist feel so sensitive toward them . It's complicated just tired of this

I'm also very self-conscious and very critical of myself.
You have my best wishes!

I know it's easier said than done, but try to stop feeling guilty about your first marriage. He did that on his own by being abusive. He sounds like a bully and bullies prey on vunerable and sensitive people. Basically they are cowards and by being abusive it makes them feel powerful.
look at the positives, you've a new husband who your kids like, you provide for them, you don't get child support, forget him. Please don't think I'm being hard, but he's done a good job on you, he's made you feel guilty. If you don't let go, he will have won.
keep posting on here and you'll get loads of advice and support, you're not alone

from what you've said about your ex, it sounds like he suffers from Narcisstic Personality disorder. It's a very complex condition where a person has to be in control, almost attention seeking. They have to be in control and will use verbal, mental and physical abuse to make them believe they have power over others.
whilst it's not quite the same, it's similar in some ways to being a psychopath, they have to have power over others. If say for example you were out with your ex and another couple in a social situation, how would he react to anyone who disagreed or offered an opinion from an opposite point of view? I guess he wouldn't like it.
does he feel like he has to be the best in everything, have power over his friends, his view, whether right or wrong is the only acceptable one to him?
i know you say you feel guilt ridden, well that's because he's chipped away at you, almost to the point where you start to doubt yourself, in other words, he's transferred his guilt to you, think it's call reverse/transferable guilt. I'm not qualified yet,
try googling NARCISSTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER
