It seems like my husband is always angry.
Hi everyone! I’m going to try to keep this as vague as possible just in case. My husband and I are in our late 20s and are parents to a beautiful, healthy toddler boy. Our life is stressful, we are very busy folks trying to get by working full time and trying to be present parents while keeping up with housework since we are homeowners as well. There’s more I want because sure, who doesn’t want more? But I’m genuinely happy. I love my husband, I love our son, and I love my job. I’m exhausted a lot of the time, mentally and physically, but our life is everything I dreamt of when I was a little girl.
But my husband lately… has been angry it seems constantly. My husband never takes it out on me or our son, but he will say not great things just generally out loud, speed in the car (never recklessly driving, just faster than I would like), and occasionally slam doors/cabinets, and say things under his breath.
I just don’t know what to do. I love him and want to help, as I know it is probably miserable to always feel that way, but don’t even know where to start. It’s so uncomfortable and I grew up with a dad with a HUGE temper so it’s honestly triggering for me, I feel like I’m walking on eggshells constantly. Any advice for this situation would be greatly appreciated.
Tl;dr: my husband is angry a lot, I don’t know how to help him.
