As far as my relationship, yes it was difficult at first. My fiance thought that meds would change who I am, and he thought therapy was simply talking. He didn't understand. Then we went through the jealousy stage where he was jealous of my T and Pdoc because I care about them. Then he was jealous of the support they were giving me. He also feared losing me because he was losing control over me and I was seeing the flaws in our relationship. My T told me people either grow together or grow apart. She also said it usually gets worse before it gets better because the other person might not be ready for the change.

My fiance is trying in his own way. He supports me seeing my T and he supports me being on meds. He still hates my Pdoc though. His anger has gotten overall better, but there is still a lot of improvement needed.

As for things I've discovered that I wish I didn’t know...nothing. The difficult part is remembering everything. I buried so much of my past. I knew it was there, but it was kind of "out of sight, out of mind" sort of things. Now, I am constantly being reminded of my past. It's a good thing because I will hopefully come to terms with everything, but it's definitely not easy.
