By and he wonders why I'm anxious - 25/02/2016 22:41 - Netherlands

Today, after years of torment by my anxiety disorders and therapy and medication not helping, I've made the decision to try hypnosis. After doing a Google search and finding out my therapist is a man, my overly jealous fiancé insisted on joining, "because he might hypnotise you into cheating." FML

As much as it sounds jealous.. He got a point which might occur in sexual assault...

We can only hope OP did at least a background check on the therapist. I don't necessarily agree with the man here with his wording, but I would be VERY concerned if my SO looked for some random hypnotherapist who asked her to be in a room with him for a good hour or two. At any rate, why do people even go for hypnotherapy??? I personally feel losing control of your own mind one of the scariest things that can happen to a person

Would you also be afraid of your significant other going to the doctor because "who knows what the doctor really does when they touch them?"

Also, I don't think you know what hypnotherapy is.

My mom went to a hypnotist as a last resort for smoking. She had been a smoker for 14 years and now she can't stand the smell of it. The smell actually makes her sick now. Some people go to help weight loss and other things. It works better if you're actively trying to get your desired result though

Maybe I'm reading hypnotism in the broadest sense but it does open your brain for suggestion right? I'm fine with doctors, she can fend herself if the doctor tries a stunt as she would be alert. I don't know about hypnotism, too freaky of a method to me

Why would it bother you if the one person you chose to spend the rest of your life with came...? Are you planning on cheating anyways?

i wouldn't let my partner to go to therapist for hypnosis alone, not because of jealousy but safety reasons though...

Tell him "no". Your mental health is more important than validating his feelings of insecurity.

I don't mean to sound callous, but he needs some therapy for his jealousy issues, and your mental health is too important to allow his issues to interfere. Tell him no. His jealousy is another issue entirely, and you can't fix it.

Maybe your anxiety comes from your husband as well. Good luck anyway to tell him to stop being jealous.

Im pretty sure half your problems come from your overly jealous boyfriend. Its hard constantly worrying about who you talk to, where you go, and if you're going to upset him.

If a medical professional were to coerce you into performing sexual acts when you are not in a conscious state of mind and able to consent that is rape. That's pretty concerning if your fiancé considers you being raped as cheating on him. His jealousy is off the charts, seems like a red flag to me.
