Keeping last Mondays incident of having to be transported to the hospital for taking pills a secret from my husband is killing me. I feel like I'm pulling away from him so much because I know he won't understand and he'll get angry at me. He gets upset and smacks my leg like I'm a little kid when he sees my cuts so I know this isn't just my imagination running wild and a real fear of mine. What do I do? Keep it a secret or risk his reaction to it?

Do you have a T? Would it be possible to take him to an appointment and share it then, that way your T could help you get through that conversation, as well as curb the reaction you fear (and reasonably so)? While you will probably still get a negative reaction, hopefully that environment will help him express his concern in a more controlled and supportive way... Then maybe your T could help give you both advice/help you work on a plan on how you will continue to handle this situation (and any similar that may happen in the future) together...

I do have a therapist but my husband works days so that wouldn't be a possibility. And I don't really want him coming to a session since it's kind of my time ya know?

Well I just completely broke down and told him everything. He didn't run in the opposite direction but that doesn't automatically make the urges and thoughts go away. In fact they're severely bad right now so we'll see.
Eta I ended up calling the crisis line because I couldn't handle it. I told them I didn't take any pills even though I took 2 but that's nothing that will do anything. I just want the crisis therapist to call me but I know she's not on call this weekend. Last edited by SheHulk07; Nov 29, 2013 at 03:12 AM. |

No my crisis therapist didn't call me but I spoke to the on call person for a little bit. I know she will call me on Monday though.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
