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

maybe you need to have å talk with him about his jealousy.

He sounds a little too overbearing

Tell him he's not welcome. You won't be able to be fully open with your therapist (which is a must if therapy is to work) with an audience. if he doesn't accept that, then maybe you should start examining other areas of your life. Is your gynecologist a male? If so, does he insist on coming to every pap smear? Are you allowed to go places alone or just you and the girls without getting a third degree? when you are somewhere without him, does he call you or insist you call him every few minutes "just to make sure you're safe"?

I remember a story coming out of Australia where a dentist was having sex with his patients once he rendered them unconscious. I realize this is an extreme case, but perhaps he's not as jealous as he is concerned for your welfare. It's something to consider and discuss.

this almost makes OP's sig other seem reasonable. I can get being concerned and wanting to be there if it's about worry for an unconscious person (does hypnotism actually make you unconscious?) instead of "don't cheat on me". but he did say "cheat" instead of "rape" so

Get out now. That's going to be trouble down the road.

Heads up... This is how the rest of your life will play out. And he's probably half the reason you need therapy.

Yeah, he shouldn't need to go but I don't think he was referring to OP as a cheater. He might have been talking about the therapist taking advantage of OP.

I think its a valid concern, have you ever been to a hypnosis show, and watch a family member get hypnotized. People don't realize suggestive hypnotism is real. Im not saying he's right, but this understandable

Have you ever heard of anybody using hypnotism to make someone cheat on their partner? Ever? OP's partner put a weird hypothetical unrealistic fear/insecurity above finding a solution to a real and immediate problem that's put them through a metric **** ton of fear and pain. I'd be pissed if someone put their trust issues on me like that.

I know anxiety hurts, but if you let your man push you like that, he's the one causing your anxiety, and you just don't get it. Anyone who suspects you are cheating, and you aren't... They are usually the one cheating.

Look into "Emotion Code". My doctor suggested it for my anxiety and I started meeting with a psychologist who specialized in it. It honestly is incredibly helpful, and really, you don't even have to talk if you don't feel comfortable. I highly highly recommend it
