Keeping Your Mood in Check: Don't Drag Your Spouse Down
This episode explains how to keep your own low moods from dragging your spouse down while staying honest about how you feel.
Learn practical steps: avoid ruminating, clarify expectations (for example, "I'm sorry I'm down; I don't expect you to fix it"), and be aware of how past experiences can shape responses.
If you’re frequently grumpy, identify triggers and choose kinder actions even when you feel bad — don’t reserve your worst behaviour for home.
