[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your husband could have responded better; I'm sorry he wasn't supportive.

Please tell your doctor everything.  Having all the information is how they will give you the best care.

Trust me, OP, caring and competent healthcare professionals do NOT want to see you "locked up."  They want to help prevent that.  Knowing the full story is the best way to help you; helping you is the best way to help your family and your child.  I'm sending you all my very best.

If, for any reason, your psychiatrist doesn't respond well, please report back.  I bet some of us can identify providers who would get it and would be helpful to you.  Hugs.[/quote]

You aren't a danger to yourself or others, and your provider is very unlikely to "lock you up." But if you tell them everything about what is going on, they can help you.

Your husband is talking out of fear, which is unfortunately counterproductive in this situation. BTDT with other family members (I have a sibling who hears voices and my parents were also afraid for him to tell the psychologists "everything" and this strategy brought everyone much more pain than they had to experience.) Sometimes our closest relatives are not the most helpful in these situations.

But you seem to have all the right instincts about how to care for yourself! Trust yourself![/quote]
