Yoda - It was made illegal in the 70s. It can still be given by a medical professional but I'm not sure of the circumstances.

It's not like an anti-depressant where you are told to take it basically forever. It increases the amount of Oxytocin in your system which is the same thing pregnant women and new mothers have in abundance allowing bonding and that "cuddling" want with your child. So it makes you feel closer, be able to talk openly etc...

So it would be like going into a therapy session for a few hours.

I have talked to him and we have gone to couples therapy. He does want to and has opened up to me about a lot and told me things he's never told anyone else. So I know that he WANTS to. It's just trying to get him in the habit of opening up naturally and letting go of the negative feelings associated with being open and honest.

Thanks for being open about this. I appreciate it. I was anticipating some negative thoughts about it. Glad I was proven wrong
