Hey there. I don't have PPD myself or know anybody with PPD but I have read a bit about it... It sounds like a really hard thing for spouses to deal with. It is mostly to do with jealousy around your affections / your sexual faithfulness?

Does she hear voices? If so, has she had her hearing checked? There has been some correlation found between hearing voices and having hearing problems and sometimes fixing the hearing problem (if possible) can lead to a reduction in voices that sometimes function to feed the paranoia.

Does she have episodes that are worse than others? Does she become delusional with the paranoia at times? E.g., Does she sometimes become *convinced* that you are being unfaithful on the basis of very slim evidence?

Sorry about all the questions, but I guess I'm just trying to figure whether there might be things that could be done to help alleviate the condition or whether it will indeed be a long haul type of thing. (Sometimes it is a long haul type of thing, but sometimes people find the condition alleviates considerably with fixing the hearing problem or with taking a small dose of anti-psychotics).

Hang in there. It must be very frustrating indeed.
