[quote=Anonymous]I've been there. I told DH that it wasn't fair to either of us for him to have me as his only coping mechanism for his anxiety. In making him feel better, I felt worse. It wasn't good for our marriage. And I made it clear that it wasn't fair to him - I'm not a doctor or a therapist. I was at best giving him terrible medical advice and he deserved real treatment. It got better but not without a lot of fights. I told him to be a grown up and figure himself out because I could not do that for him and expect to have a relationship with him worth having. He's now exercising more and has new medication. He still slides into it some times but I remind him that I'm not his doctor, I'm his wife.[/quote]
