[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing about medications is that it is not permanent, you can always stop them.  Maybe you and your husband could agree to a trial period of about 3 months.  You have to give the meds enough time to work.  Make a plan that at 3 months you will re-evaluate, and either continue or stop.  A couple may need to be tapered down, but should not be a big deal after only three months.[/quote]

The drug industry is just that....an industry.  It is driven by profits.  It is not a good business practice to have part-time clientele.  It is more than likely that your children will be life-time clients of this industry.[/quote]

I really appreciate your offering a counterpoint to pharmaceutical industry marketing. However, the original poster of this thread is not asking about whether or not to medicate. Rather, she is asking about how others have dealt with their spouses regarding this issue. As such, your posts are not relevant to the topic. If you would like to continue discussing pharmaceutical industry practices and/or the effectiveness of medication, please start another thread.
