When you partner gets upset when you need emotional support

I have a lot of PTSD from my mom being very controlling. I love her, but when she updated me about moving back to the city I live in, I couldn't lie, it threw me off. I started being vocal about it, complaining to my partner (INFP), and he suddenly became so upset about it. Like he said, things like "you don't know how to say things and talk to your mom, that's why you frustrate her, and tbh you also frustrate me, and because you are complaining, you made me remember all the reasons why I hate your personality sometimes." Omg, he said he HATES parts of me? I do get upset at him, but I never say I HATE something about him. And his whole day is ruined, and he is acting so upset at me when I'm the one who truly needed that support. Then he said i make him feel like upset and annoyed at people around him including his family sort of saying it's somewhat my fault he gets upset at his family bc i keep him in an upset state.

WTF is wrong with him. We talk about his shit all the time and when he complains he can do it forever and i do listen.

Idk im very hurt. Usually I keep all my emotions inside, and seems like it's always been the best option with anyone. honestly ENTJ's power is sometimes been unfaced and strong and not showing weakness bc other people get so upset.
