[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes DH is not thinking clearly, which is exactly why I personally feel that a doc needs a concise history (preferably one page, two at most) from someone who is not DH.

Since I am telling the truth about my observations, and they go strictly to reporting things said and done, and not interpretations or diagnoses, I cant see how that would harm anything. Eventually they would find the reasons for why I am seeing what I am seeing Right? That is the one thing that I just cant see happening. I mean, them finding the problem, unless they have this other thing to compare notes to.[/quote]

Here's the problem I see.  You write a 2 page letter to a Dr. saying what you observe in DH.  Therapist has never met you and never really talked to you.  Perhaps because you aren't at that point yet, perhaps because your husband says he doesn't want you at a session and is lying to you about that.  Who knows.  Anyways, you write the 2 page letter, therapist reads it and says ok.  He talks to your DH who denies everything in the letter and is coming across as fine.  Then what happens?  Does the therapist disregard the fact that your husband appears fine, is talking coherently, and doesn't appear to be in any danger and instead believe the letter he received from someone he's never met, and for all he knows, may have some mental health issues?  That's the problem.  I'd recommend finding a new therapist and starting from scratch.  And YOU set up and appt for the two of you together.  Get an established first visit where the issues are laid out on the table.  Because no therapist is going to take the word of someone who he has never met over how their patient appears.  And that's the problem I think you are running into.  I also have a suspicion your husband is not being 100% honest with you[/quote]
