[quote=Anonymous]I think I would be worried about what my DH was trying to self-treat - anxiety, depression, etc. and making it difficult to tolerate life without being stoned. And I think I would be irritated about the fact that he seemed baked and unreachable every night (but that’s just me - I don’t love being stone-cold sober when my DH is drunk, I find the behaviors annoying).

That being said, OP - you kind of shrug off your DH’s reasons for getting a MMC - describing it as a result of  “quarantine”, almost with a bit of an eye roll. His doctor wrote him a prescription; they considered it medically necessary.

Yelling at and berating your DH simply wont work, or break this endless power struggle. When your DH isn’t high, you should sit down and talk with him in an effort to understand. Treat him like the grown adult he is, rather than barking at him.

I imagine that your strong reaction is based in fear, and I totally get it. Those feelings are valid, and you can share them with your DH, but also make a genuine effort to understand where he’s coming from. That’s the only way to break this cycle (if not the actual pot use).[/quote]
