There has been a lot of talk about their intent to change, but I fear I still see them leaning hard on the same maladaptive coping mechanisms that helped get us here. It's still early yet, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't concerned. I drew up a plan that I'm following, so I'm just waiting until I have enough info to know to continue or divorce.

I'm sorry you're feeling frustrated and hopeless about your relationship. It's really demoralizing when the other person doesn't want to hear there's an issue, or understands but there are issues with them working on it. I've experienced both from both sides and understand it's often more complex than it seems, but it still comes down to if they have the commitment and follow through necessary to make positive, sustained change, because that's hard to do. Really hard.

If I may provide some unsolicited advice, couples counseling can be great. If you go that route or have already and want to try again, I'd recommend seeing a therapist that specializes in couples and is experienced in providing therapy for any conditions present, like ADHD, borderline personality disorder, or PTSD. The Gottman Method is great. Couples counseling is also most effective in conjunction with individual counseling, so partners can really dig into their own experience and what they bring to the relationship.
