My wife has finally admitted she needs to see someone about her "Bitchiness". Two weeks ago she made an appointment for next week. Ever since this her making the appointment she has been off the charts bitchy.
Is this normal? Do people do this like they do when they eat a lot before going on a diet?

She is probably just nervous about the meeting. Just be kind to her and supportive. At least she recognized that she has a problem and she is seeking help for it.

Yes, it's quite "normal" because seeing a "mental health professional" for the first time is veeerrrryyyy stressful.
I am a professional personal counselor & I get anxious before I see my doctor, especially if I know the topic of discussion! Sometimes the anxiety is worse if I don't know what my subconscious is going to start spouting off about. Bitchiness is an attempt to "regain control of one's environment" She may be feeling that her safety is threatened or her fears will be exposed. But since I haven't met her I can't say for sure. Do you have someone to talk to? If not, find a professional in your area you feel comfortable with. Shop 'til you are satisfied.

"Hello thebuffettour!
I am not a professional; however, I've talked to plenty of them and have come to know a little about this matter.
You wife has made a very transparent self-disclosure. There's no doubt she feels very vulnerable. The increased "bitchyness" is a defense mechanism ... all women have it.
She has made a "embarrassing admission." She has no mechanism to hold it into place yet. The professional, if he's worth a sh**, will teach her how to express her "truth" without being a further victim of it. He will also suggest (provide) vehicles which she may use to transfer anger from the direction of her family to it's root causes. If her root cause is herself, he will suggest methods enabling her to break through fixations and discard the "bitchyness" to a better purpose.
In conclusion, no one knows exactly what will happen during or after her interviews. I believe she might stumble onto something useful for her and for her family. After all, she has asked for help. That's the big first step.
Best of luck to you!"

okay, let me first say that I too was one of thosse bitchy women like you wife so, I speak from expierance. Firsst of all I am sure she fells very insecure with herself right now considering the situation. Second of all she probly feels like everything she does is being scrutinized by you. I don't know why we do this. I think she's scared and afraid right now. At least she is dealing with the problems she is having because she would have never made the appointment. Be supportive. You don't have to kiss her *** as men say but let her know that you love and support her and what she is going through.

i'd imagine making a existence selection will require something like a counseling consultation of a few type. you do not say how previous you're or why you're choosing the technique so no way of understanding what you're questioning about, yet giving it time and reasoning out your decision is purely yet differently to be particular it is the alternative you could make which will regulate your existence from the following on out. issues replace, existence could be an uncomplicated element and frequently the options we make in our 20s, at the on the spot are not the options we may have made in our 30s or perhaps our 40s. purely be particular the justifications you're doing this are ones you received't remorseful about in a while.

My husband thinks I'm a ***** too, only difference is I'm comfortable with it, so I don't need to see a shrink. So if it's that much of an issue for him or you, maybe he or you can go see one!

she is probably scared to death about going and knows that she is in the wrong sometimes.
have a little consideration here. shes going to try to do something that has always been normal in her life and its really hard to change.
at least she is willing to try. what about you?
