My wife supports him in his negative behavior towards me. Also, my wife’s family supports him too. If I leave home, I will lose my health insurance, cell phone, car and medical supports. I will lose my psychiatrist. I have come to this site looking for a friend for support.
Hi there, Joe. How are your meds doing ? When is the last time you saw your therapist and psychiatrist? Have you made any med changes recently that could be causing these issues? How long have these issues been going on?
