Hi all, I still kind of new here so I'll introduce myself. I'm a married mother of a two year old. I love the show 24, hence my username and I've been in therapy for about a year. There is a lot more to me than that but I'm trying to summarize!

I was wondering if any of you are married and if your spouse is supportive of your therapy? If it has caused problems how did you resolve it? Change therapists or quit going?

My husband and I have been together 7 years. We are going on 4 years married. He's very quiet and reserved and I'm the opposite very loud and lets just say unreserved?

Anyway, our marriage was lacking intimacy and once my depression started to lift, I realized this in therapy. My husband kept refusing to come to any sessions with me. He would say he doesn't know anyone who ever went to therapy.

He eventually lamented and we had a few couple sessions and then one day he said he thought we were fine and didn't see the point of continuing. He told my T this one session.

I wanted DH to try a few sessions alone with my T because he would get very emotional about being quiet and reserved, called it a personality flaw and would cry sometimes.

So, eventually he tried one session alone. My T said it went great and DH seemed happy when he got home. He said they talked about him coming every 2-3 weeks.

One day, something changed. He decided he didn't need it. That was it. He gets mad if I bring it up. I told him, see someone else then but he isn't the person I used to know. I want him to get some assistance I love him.

Some background on this is he knows of my attachment to my T. He didn't understand it at first but says he does now. DH wants a second child bad and I don't right now. He is having a hard time with my decision on that but I can't see having another child until he and I are solid. He doesn't really get that.

I'm not sure how to resolve this. I plan to talk to my T about it again tonight. Last week we touched on the subject and T thinks DH is jealous of our relationship in that my T and I can talk about my feelings, emotions and such and my DH can't do that with me or anyone. So anyone I connect with is going to be a problem for him.

I agree with this. The last few sessions, my DH has made me feel bad about having my sessions at 5:30. I give him plenty of notice but he still gets upset the night before and has me either take our son to a drop off daycare costing another $100 on top of our current day care costs or he tries to get me to switch it and I never can that late notice.

I feel like he is trying to get me to stop therapy and I am making so much progress now. My progress has pointed out our marriage issues but I want to work on them.

I'm sorry the post is so long...any advice is appreciated.
