Dear Queenie,
My wife is just wonderful, except when she gets upset about something, and then she takes it out on me, and it seems like even just small matters get her upset. She gets really mean and I can’t seem to find anything to say or do to make her feel better. All I can do is just keep quiet and wait for the bad spell to be over.
Queenie, is there any way I could help my wife with this problem?—Worried husband
Dear Husband,
Is your wife taking any kind of medication that might affect her moods? Could it be hormonal fluctuations? Try to get her to have a complete medical check-up and be sure to talk to her doctor about this problem. Medical intervention might be the answer, or the doctor might suggest professional psychological counselling.
