Here's one for you, what do you do with a man you have spent the last 22 years of your life with, gave him your heart and soul to and he turns around and says that your chronic depression is all in your head?
This is a believe I knew that he had when we first found out but over the years i thought he had finally come around to believing that it was real.
Watching I think it was 60 mins. about the electrode surgery that they do now on area 25 of the brain my heart went out to those who tried the surgery. For those that it helped congrats for those of us that fear that kind of dramatic thing i hurt. But, a comment was made and it became clear that my husband still thinks that it is all in my head and doesn't exist.
Now what do i do???
I can relate to you. I have been married for 30 years. I was told I had MS in 2003 and I have been suffering severe depession and other effects from the MS. My husband thinks most of it is in my head and has taken no effort to even learn anything about MS. This really hurts me because if he would just take the time to learn about MS he would understand why me a whole lot better.
I do not have the option to have electrode surgery because of the MS so I am stuck like chuck with no one to turn to.
I tried to go to support groups, however I really didn't relate very well. I would love to ask Robin what she would do if she were in my shoes.
God Bless and I hope things get better for you.
