If he's really suffering, whether it's 'all in his head' or not, then he deserves your sympathy and your help, even if it's hard sometimes. He does need to do his best to help himself, though, and if doctors can't do anything for him, perhaps he needs anxiety meds or therapy?
I guess only you can surmise which of those things it is.

I apologize if I mis-spoke and offended you. It was not intended. I have been living with this with my h for going on 20 years and he refuses anxiety meds or depression meds when the dr suggests, he refuses therapy, he over and over and over refuses to go to marriage counseling. it's a recurring pattern ad nauseum. i have been very patient with him but my patience is wearing thin because he refuses help. except to go to the dr to be told every time there's nothing wrong with him. he watches medical shows and convinces himself he has whatever rare disease they are talking about that day. I want to be able to help him, but nothing I do ever helps, everhthing I say is wrong, everything i try to do is wrong, every time it happens i get closer to the end of my rope.
I'm sorry everyone. It's just been a very long time dealing with this. I don't mean to make anyoen feel bad who deasl with health anxiety. I am going to take a break from PC for awhile. Maybe i should follow the others who deleted their accounts.
