Natasha says despite her 8-year marriage with her husband, Brenden, being full of screaming, fights, threats, name-calling and pushes to the face, which she calls “muffing,” she still stays by his side. Why is Natasha trying to make this relationship work? Brenden admits he can get anxious, which leads to outbursts of anger, but says he suspects he could have a medical problem. Dr. Phil asks Dr. Bradley Jabour, CEO and Chief of Radiology at Medical Imaging Center of Southern California, to find out if Brenden could really have something medically wrong with his brain.

Living with my husband brendan and his anger issues have been an absolute roller coaster.
I've tried to leave him a couple times, but then he makes my life a living.
Hell.
Brendan's, anger, outbursts happen.
At least once a day he's called me, horrible names like [, __ ].
The list goes on and on.
My name is natasha and I'm a piece of not good about nobody but myself.
We've had some bad incidents.
We were in a heated argument and brendan, slammed the door, and then proceeded to kick through it.
The door flew at me and my son.
So I stayed with a family member for about two and a half months about a week into being separated brendan found a new girlfriend at one of the kids exchanges, brendan got really upset after he just dumped out of the car.
He stole my keys and chucked him in this field.
Brendan said that he felt really bad and was really apologetic about everything that he had done.
I went back to him shortly after I realized this was a horrible mistake.
The next time that I left, we started arguing at a restaurant and brendan said that he was going to leave me there.
Our kids were crying, don't, leave mommy.
And at one point, he took his hand, and he muffed me in the face like this just pushed my face back to this open palm like this.
And it knocked my glasses off my face when we got home, I panicked.
So I got in my car to try to leave, and he got in front of the car and was telling me just come inside.
So I cracked my window down just a little bit and was yelling.
Help me help me.
And that seemed to scare him.
We lived separately for a while.
But then we started hanging out like a family again and decided to move back in together.
I don't want my kids to be around his outbursts, he's, really good as a father.
But as soon as he gets anxious, he gets angry at them and he'll start yelling.
I want to figure out if there's hope for brendan to change or should I break away now while my kids are still young, our guest told us some things that have me a bit concerned about what the plan will be today, including natasha telling the associate producer that she feared what brendan might do to her her children and her mother after the taping, I am very concerned how brendan will act on stage he's already packed with ammo.
If he needs it to defend himself, worst case scenario for me would be feeling like belittled and attacked on stage.
I would want to get up and walk off stage I'm scared for my mom I'm scared for me.
When we go home when no one's there to protect us, I know, he's crazy, he's made threats of punching my mom in the face based off what she said, I'm, nervous, he'll break everything at the house, I'm nervous, he'll steal, my kids and drive off drunk with them when he's drunk or really angry.
He has no control over what he does.
Natasha.
How do you feel about being here today? I'm happy to be here? Scary, yeah, but happy right? Let's.
Talk about what's going to happen here today, because I want you to feel free to speak up and be honest, um, we're prepared to make sure that you're safe here.
You know, we don't get violent.
Here.
That's never happened here.
Uh, in 19 years, there's, never been a single guest lay a finger on another guest on this stage ever in 19 years and it's, not going to start today, right it's, not who we are it's, not what we do that's, not how this works.
And I can tell you the way to deal with someone that has flash anger is not to confront them and get in their face, right? Because that's their comfort zone, he's afraid of being attacked and belittled and all of that and that's not going to happen, because it would get us.
Nowhere, right? He actually understands that what he's doing is not right.
He just doesn't know how to stop it right and that's different.
Now, when we talk about these behaviors according to you, uh, he's, threatened to kill you, um.
He dated a girl during a separation, which is a very rebellious thing to do.
He he refused to appear, uh here in the past, because you wrote to me originally back in 19, but he wouldn't participate, correct correct.
He abandoned you in a field with your children.
He calls you every name in the book.
We don't need to go through them.
He breaks tvs tables during rants.
He just kind of starts throwing stuff around.
You say, he's, muffed, you twice with his open hand, that's where he pushes your face back, yes, broke your glasses.
Once during that time, he self-medicates with marijuana daily right, yes and he's really frustrated that you don't get him.
The good news is it's.
Not your fault.
The bad news is it's.
Not your fix.
Thank you.
Uh.
If you could fix, it that'd be great.
We could just change what you're doing, and then everything would be great.
But that's, not the issue.
