Seek a counselor, and if possible one who is a Christian. Sometimes it takes a third person to be able to actually īseeī what the problem is. It could be an easy fix, you never know. |
She Wolf 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes, unfortunately he has tried many different types of suppressent type prescriptions, but it is only Prozac that controles his rapid mood swings and deep depression. We have tried a Christian counciler, but it did not do us any good. Our vows said in sickness and in health and I do intend to uphold them as I feel this also includes mental illness. I do appreciate you advice, I just donīt know what I am supposed to do as a Christian wife. He constantly struggles with his faith, and I feel that sometimes my faith really bothers him. We have always said that if we ever divorced, we would always remain the best of freinds, but I need more then that! I need a husband! I need to know that I am loved and that my needs count as well. Is this wrong? So frustrated! |

ShadowDancer 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Prozac can cause a flattening of the mood-that is why it can be used for bi polar/manic depressive. He needs to work his mind to disciplining it. A spiritual counselor is advised and use caution as with all antidepressants(which is what it is) there are warnings-higher rate of suicide and even homicide. You can im me if you want some other insights-it is so frustrating and the flatness compared to the roller coaster is hard to adapt to. Take care |
Anonymous Coward 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You know that this world is controlled by Satan, Still you trust in the same corporations that kill innocent people. GET RID OF THE POIZON!! Talk with your Husband about God, what weīr doing here, who we are. Depression is absolutely normal, is a sympton, means that you know that something is wrong with you, and the world. Your husband needs help from God, not from Prozac. Ask Jesus for wisdom. |
She Wolf 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This has been going on for quite some time. Our marriage has been through just about everything a marriage can go through. We have gone from physical abuse to emotional/mental abuse, infidelity on both our parts, abortion, suicide attempts, step children and all that that entails you name it we have survived it! His mother is bi-polar and takes Lythiem for it. His brother commited suicide when he was only 17. He opened up about this to our counciler, but felt that talking did him no good. He is a very private person and only agreed to go when things got really bad between us. At this point I feel like I have tried everything and it is almost as though if I let him do what he wants and just try to be there for him, this will all work out somehow. I just donīt know how much more I can take. I went on Prozac myself for a while just so I could deal with all of his problems and still function as a wife and mother. Iīve been home from work the last 6mo. and it has made it much easier to deal with all of this. God definitely has my back so to speak. |
Anonymous Coward 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Simply put, you canīt change your husband, he has to change himself. Beware that he might very well be buying time until the house is sold. Protect yourself and make a back-up plan just in case he has another life. You donīt want to be left with nothing. Staying out late, not wanting sex. OH, come on woman! Jesus did not teach us to be someoneīs fool. You want to keep your husband? Act like you donīt need him. A husband and wife take care of each other. Keep steady and emotionally even. Seems to be at this point your husband should be concerned about losing you! and, donīt stop praying |

Touch the separate ends to different parts of your skull. That scrambles the synapsis in your brain.

Anonymous Coward 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Magnesium! Great tip for this person. Magnesium is found in chocolate and refried beans as well as almonds. Magnesium gives the brain the feeling of well being. There are other foods that have magnesium, I just canīt think of what they are right now. |

angel8765 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | She Wolf, stay in your own energy! Prozac has a lot of side effects. Seems your husband is finding his way and does not have much space for you right now. You can not change that, he has to do that. Stay in your own faith, and yes I believe that it is bothering him, but that is his problem. It must be painful a lot right now, but you are not dependent on him to be happy. Donīt be a victim here, you have enough light inside you to be happy also without your husband. And meaby one day you find somebody that is willing to be emotionally and lovingly involved with you. Stay in your own light. |

Prozac was developed from LSD which was discovered in the 30īs. The CIA experimented with LSD - trying to make the "perfect" soldier with it. +++++++++++++++++ Never, Ever Stop cold turkey with SSRIs - it can be lethal to oneself and others. Reduce amount of dosage per day - to smaller and smaller amounts - but take some EVERY day. It took my wife 2 months to taper down off of Zoloft - using Magnesium to reduce the Side effects of withdrawl - like PANIC ATTACKS.

She Wolf 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thanks to everyone for the magnesium tips. He does get plenty of that in his diet, unfortunately this is a chemical embalance according to his doctor and believe me, I notice it when he doesnīt take his meds! Can anyone tell me if the vow "in sickness and in health" applies to my situation. It seems as though there are some underlying issues other then the mental illness. But I donīt know, because I have never experianced this with anyone. |

mbk 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sounds to me as if your life is at risk here. Jesus does not expect you to remain in a marriage that could eventually kill you. Suicidal marriage is not a biblically-sanctioned way of life. God will grant you release from this nightmare, if that is what you want. Other issues: Prozac and alcohol donīt mix. Your husband has very serious psychiatric problems that are way beyond your coping abilities. He needs a new start in life and he needs to live alone for at least two years with the help of professional therapy. I was just like him once, and my marriage was exactly as you have described. |
She Wolf 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | mbk, thank you so much for your input as īone who has been thereī Can I ask what type of mental illness you had? Also, I am so afraid to just leave him, as Iīm not sure that he would survive. As I stated before, his own brother killed himself over his wife leaving him! Iīm not sure I could live with myself if this happened. What if he is as ill as his brother? Are you a man and if so can you please tell me some of what you were feeling during your marriage? Perhaps it would help me to get a better idea of what my husband is feeling. You can pm me if it would make it easier to talk about. Thanks |

Anonymous Coward 12/08/2005 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | She Wolf, dear lady, separate yourself from that which brings you down. Let it work itīs own issues out. You are suffering thinking you can help someone else to not suffer and in this case, you cannot. But you can help you. Get your own place. Decorate it. Eat the food YOU like, read the books YOU like, get an aquarium and fill it with all kinds of neat cratures. Plant flowers, cook things you only dream about. Lift YOURSELF up remembering who your Source is. God cannot help you lest you make the move. He is your energy and inspiration. |
