Thank you very much for the advice. I agree that my wife's feelings are completely valid. That's why I want to find a way forward because it's not fair on her. I am also neurodivergent and have ADHD. This is probably exacerbating this issue because I find it very difficult to slow my brain down. I think fast, I talk fast and things don't come out like they are intendeded. I will definitely try modulating my voice. I'll also be more mindful of how I'm speaking. I could try taking a deep breath and using the time to collect my thoughts and mentally prepare myself for speaking. Thank you again for the empathy and advice. I really appreciate it.
