Question: 

I'm tired, she's tired. I betrayed her for so long the depths of her pain are justified. But we've been at this for a while and our peers seem to be in a much better place than we are. My wife has PTSD and I'm in recovery for my sex addiction. She says she wants a connection but when I try to come to her I get pushed away. When I try to talk to her it triggers her rage and anger. I'm trying to hang in there and keep coming back it seems my attempts at empathy are lacking still, even after EMSO. And to make matters worse I'm an underground processor. I desperately want to connect with her, but I can't seem to figure out what she needs me to do. Any suggestions?
