Ice Cream Chick Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Hello to everyone. I am thankful that I have found this website to find others who share in being some form of "nuts" (not the pecan type). I have Depression, GAD, SAD, ADHD, and perhaps more. My depression seems to get better until I something upsetting happens and I sink very, very low. I have been told that I have Major Depressive Disorder and then told by another that I have Dythsmia (spelling???). I have not been able to work for nearly five years. My husband has told me that he will divorce me if I do not "get better". I see a Pdoc and a therapist and now my husband has agreed to go to marriage counseling with me. Our first session left me feeling more alone and then I felt worst depressed afterwards. i am afraid that I can not become magically well as he wants me to on his timetable. He screams at me saying that I am not trying hard enough and it makes me feel even worst. He tells practically everyone about my MIs and I find it very personally violating my privacy as I struggle to try to make it day to day with these challenges. I am afraid of losing my health insurance if he does divorce me and I will have to go live back with my parents as I have no place else to go. I was denied SSD disability. I wish to feel better and be more functional, I basically only take care of our pets and do laundry. I hope to find understanding and coping here on this site. Maybe even a friend or two also.

appleblossom Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Welcome! That really sucks about your husband. Like you need that kind of pressure, or that it's some choice you can make. I'm sorry things are so hard for you. Being without insurance and mentally ill is very difficult but there are community health programs that accept everyone. The downside is that waiting lists. Hopefully you're husband can learn some compassion and you can work it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
