You guys are determined to get it out, arent ya? Well, im not going to. Not now anyway.
For now, what ive said is what ill say. Shit hits the fan and people get mad. They say things they shouldnt have and sometimes what they say is too much. I dont know how to recover from that. What do you do when you've gone too far?

When you went off at the person, about the issue, Was what you said to them the truth?
I've gone off at people before, and sometimes taken it too far I guess, though all of what I told them was the truth.
Somethings just need to be said sometimes, and in the heat of the moment it all comes out.

If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

You admit when your wrong.
You have to say exactly WHAT your sorry for...without any "but you did" or anything like that.
My Dad used to say, "If you say "but" after an apology, it is no longer an apology."
If you had reason to be angry, and you apologize in this way, you are more likely to get the apology YOU deserve too.
That's the best I can give you, with what you gave me.

Ive just been lied to so much that not only do i have trust issues, but even when im told the truth, i dont believe it. Or i dont know if i can believe it and i end trying to make things worse than they really are.

There is nothing you can do when you go too far man. You just have to cool down and let her cool down. Once both of you have a calm head, THEN you can talk rationally.
My wife did get her mental evaluation and they said they have no doubt she's bipolar. The other night was insane...she did something she shouldn't have...that she promised me she would never do. I got pissed off and confronted her about it but I was letting it go....she doesn't know when to let it go. She keeps instigating shit and I sat there in bed and said goodnight. She said "you're making me want to go hurt myself" I said fine go ahead....and she sure did. She beat her head with a frying pan and then whipped herself with a spatula...it got to the point where she was going "ah....ah" because it was hurting. Needless to say, I couldn't put up with the shit so I went into the kitchen and broke the spatula in half. I then proceeded to take all the knives out of the drawer and throw them across the room....one of them even got stuck through the sliding door blinds. I took out the drawers and slammed them as hard as I could on the kitchen floor, one by one. She was screaming at me to stop and I kept taking them out....and the last one I just held there and stared her straight in the eyes and watched her beg me to stop, yet I did it anyways. Sent pieces flying everywhere.
It was a bad night....but can I take it back? Nope. I fixed most of the drawers, but there are some nasty gouges in the hard wood floor. Knives cut up the walls and I ended up breaking some picture frames. Can't take it back man...but can't dwell on it either. Went to bed and the next morning, SHE apologized to ME since she instigated everything. I let it go and it's over now. But I will say....there's nothing you can do except say sorry and let everything cool down.VIP Status.

Like im told one thing, which i think is a lie, so i try and try and try to get "the truth" out and i think i really just wanna be told what i wanna hear. It's a vicious cycle, i know.

Ahhh. Forget what i said.
You have to be dealing with a rational woman for that to work.
I remember your story now....
Man, GET OUT OF THERE. It is only going to continue to get worse. and the next time she is smacking herself, threatening harm to herself, ect.
LEAVE the house.
She is not really going to do that much damage. People who are violent with themselves (like she is) are doing it FOR your reaction.
To get your attention.
Don't give her what she wants.

This is a typical situation. Clearly it was his wife, any other situation, they or he could just let it go. Wives/gf's don't let shit go. Just apologize and say she didn't do anything wrong. Doesn't matter what she did to set her off because she's a woman and thats what they do, but its never their fault that we get mad right? When my gf calls me an asshole when we're arguing I call her the female version of an asshole. When she asks wtf thats supposed to mean I just tell her its because she always brings shit up. I don't wanna talk about feelings and emotions, talk to your fucking counselor about that.

For "im sorry" to work or mean something u need to explain to your wife that you understand what you did was wrong and that it wasnt the right thing to do..........then express that you will do everything in your power to ensure that it doesnt happen again and then......follow thru with all that you processed.
Let all that marinate in her mind and she'll come around soon enough.1993 Accord LX - Sold
