Hey all. Some of you may know my story by now..but to recap. I had a very bad hypomania episode that lasted months..i started chatting all the time on the net with men. sexually flirting. It was like an obsession almost. I never had an affair, (nothing sexual ever really happened) but he doesnt believe it. Anyway, since then I am now taking 600mg daily of another mood stabelizer to keep me from going into depression/manic episodes and so far so good. I know i will never have another episode like that one because now i know how wrong it was and stupid. Plus, I realize that It was due to my illness and I know i can stop that sort of behavior. Anyway, this was a few months ago, but my husband keeps obsessing about it, everytime we go out he thinks i am looking for other men etc..(which i am not) its like he is punishing me everyday for what happened. Now, he has started going out drinking with this guy (supposidly) that he knows from work, who i happen to know is a cheater..his wife travels and he looks for women to have affairs with. So, obviously this is not the person i want my hubby going out with. I think he is doing this to get back at me, to try to hurt me. But, I think i have been hurt enough now. I understand what i did to him was bad and it hurt him, but i honestly wasnt in my right mind. Now, with the new meds i am feeling normal again and yet he still continues to say and do things to get back at me. Will this ever stop? My pdoc suggested marriage councilling, but my hubby never seemed to keen on the idea. I dont know if i should let it blow over, or will it just become a storm??
alone at home..
