[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um, the problem isn't with you, you know that, right? Your husband sounds like a real piece of work. If knowing yourself better (including getting treatment for commonplace, treatment - amenable conditions) makes your husband lose respect for you, then you should think hard about whether you need him in your life.[/quote]

+ a million.  If I felt that I shouldn't get treatment for medical issues that were making me unhappy and making my life a lot harder than it needed to be because my husband was an ignorant, judgmental jackass, I hope I would realize that the problem was my husband, not me.

You don't need to tell him anything.  You can be clear with any medical professionals that you see that you do not want them talking to your husband about you.  You can wait to tell him until you feel like you've gotten other things more under control and are feeling more confident.  But please don't let his backwards, uninformed attitude stop you from getting help.  Mood disorders are nothing to be ashamed of.  [/quote]
