Husband Calling Me Crazy. Posted: 12-27-05 19:18pm
What do you do when your loved ones think
you are crazy?
My disorder if you want to call it that,
is not a joke, not something to be made
fun of. Right?
The people you need to support you and
love you are making fun and brushing you
off. I can put myself in their position
and I know it is probably hard but I
wouldn't make fun. It hurts when your
having an attack and they call you crazy
or roll their eyes.
I have tried telling them that it hurts my
feelings, what else can I do?
Everytime I try to talk to them they turn
it into self pity... My mother says "what
have I done wrong to have a daughter like
this?"

People react like that because they have
no idea what having one is like or what
having constant anxiety feels like. It is
a prehistoric view and those people should
support you no matter what. M y boyfriend
is exactly the same and the good thing
about my anxiety is that its shown what he
is like in response to those type of
disorders and I don`t like what I have
seen. I really am re thinking whether I
want to be with someone who is like that.
I can`t make him understand and he doesn`t
have to understand it, he should just be
there for support.
My family is great and I cannot fault
them, but this forum is good if you don`t
get that support there are others out
there willing to offer you a helping
hand.
Take care

Thank You Posted: 12-27-05 22:17pm
I know they do not understand and I am in
agreement that they should be there to
support me instead of telling me I have a
mental problem and that I am crazy. Esp
my husband, I need his support the most.
He has a dry sence of humar and he thinks
he is joking around a lot when he is
actually hurting my feelings. I ask for
him to stop but he continues. He'll
eventually get the hint.
Thank you for replying. I am glad that I
found this forum. It has brought me
great comfort knowing that I am not alone,
and there are ppl suffering out there just
like me.
