Paranoia
My wife thinks I’ve been putting drugs in her food so she calls the police and leaves with a suitcase. She has a doctor’s appointment and she wants blood tests. When she finds out that I have not been putting drugs in her food we are going to see a shrink and if she says no then I’m going to tell her to go back to Japan, She’s Japanese. Living with someone like this scares me so I’m wondering if she comes back is she going to be dangerous.

sounds like she needs help from the mental health team, I hope she agrees to see the psych doctor, what other symptoms is she showing, is she hearing voices too?

why would she become dangerous? just because she is paranoid atm doesn't make someone dangerous, perhaps she is processing something in her past? has she suffered any type of trauma from her childhood?

Well if some people think you are putting drugs in the food they eat more of it. I don't think she likes your cooking or the drugs your putting in the food. Seriously.

But also sometimes a person displaces the concern (or the elephant in the room) they have regarding some aspect of their lives because it is just to difficult to rectify. Do I think someone is putting drugs in my food? Is it easier to think that than to deal with the problems I have? IDK.

What do you think you could do to make her not think that? I mean she want the food tested and this a little bit much, although verifying or dismissing a suspicion somehow is going to be necessary. Or figure out maybe their is something else. A truth she does not want to accept.

She should forgive you for the drugs you put in her food.

I encourage you to support her - you can work through this. I've had paranoia with psychosis and it is terrifying. The good news? An antipsychotic medication will wipe those symptoms out fast. I take Geodon.

Lostsoul65, I am sorry to hear you are accused of wanting to harm your wife. It seems like a reasonable request to solve this dilemma with therapy so you can establish a fair and balanced relationship. Bullying her into therapy by threatening her with having to go back to Japan however is likely counterproductive.... How can change happen for the two of you if you are not both willing to give it an honest try? Just food for thought...
