Every marriage experiences problems. No matter how long you have been married – whether one year or 40 years – you will, at one time have problems. Marital problems can be extremely intense and painful, and those hurts can cut deeply and last a very long time. every member of the family (children included) are affected.
A marriage crisis typically occurs when an unusual amount of stress or unresolved conflict causes the level of anxiety to become too intense for the couple to manage. As a result, anger, resentment, dissatisfaction, frustration and hopelessness take control of the relationship. The couple typically continues the negative interactions – or disengages completely from one another, and the relationship shuts down. This can be referred to as the boiling point or marital meltdown in the marriage. The pain caused by someone you care about as much as your spouse may be very difficult to deal with. It is usually at this point in the crisis process that a couple calls out for help from a counselor.
