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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend tried to hypnotize me into breaking up with him. FML
Today, I finally told my boyfriend that I see a therapist every week because, amongst other things, I'm terrified of being locked in a room. He didn't believe me, so he locked me in the bathroom "for a laugh." I had a panic attack and passed out. FML
Today, my fiance finally began seeing a therapist, after months of my begging him to. The therapist convinced him that he and I had "irreconcilable differences" so now he's asked for the ring back. FML
Today, the most manipulative man I know decided he's going to get me to be his next wife. I'm still in therapy after breaking free from growing up in a violent and manipulative household. He's working with me, so there's limited options of getting out of his presence. I'm scared for my sanity and my freedom. FML
Today, after I tried to break up with my boyfriend, he said he won't give up on us and asked me to go to therapy. According to him, “You might need medication for how you feel.” FML
Today, after therapy for obsessing over every woman who talks to me, all I could think about was how I could seduce my therapist. I think I still need a lot of help. FML
Today, I realized I can never live with my fiancée. A childhood of systematic teasing, abuse, and humiliation has made me terrified to use a bathroom around a guy if there's the slightest chance I can be heard, seen, or even have anyone know what I'm up to. Therapy has yet to fix anything. FML
Today, I went to the hospital for constant dizziness and insomnia, and was diagnosed with anxiety. I figured out that the main source of my anxiety is not my job but my boyfriend, who has avoidant personality, which makes him constantly refuse almost everything that I request. He's a guy who just doesn't know how to show his love. FML
Today, I was writing in a journal as part of my therapy. I jumped and hid it when my boyfriend startled me by coming in. He now swears I must be cheating, that I’m keeping secrets from him and I trust a stranger with my personal thoughts more than I trust him. That’s kinda the point of therapy. FML
Today, my anxiety has been so bad, I have had vivid dreams of my boyfriend of 6 months cheating on me. This is not the first time these dreams have happened, and I know for a fact he is not cheating. My anxiety is going to turn me into the crazy girlfriend from hell. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think you need to step back and evaluate your relationship. People are jealous for a reason. You should talk to him and find out why. Couples therapy may help the both of you. I hope you can get some help with your anxiety.

Oh man, I'm just gonna say it sounds like you need to do some serious thinking before marrying this guy. It's not even a matter of trust in this case but a matter of paranoia. Good luck op...

Such an overbearing partner will make overcoming anxiety very difficult. He needs to get some help too or neither of you will be happy

Yah lmfao oh you're going to a hypnosis to get help with something you've been suffering with for a while? I better go with you so you don't end up cheating on me if s/he rAPES YOU.

Jealousy and controlling behavior to this extreme degree is a red flag for relationship abuse (emotional or otherwise) down the line. Go to your session and tell your therapist. He may tell you that a lot of your anxiety is bound up in the man that won't even let you access healthcare without checking in first.

Breakup with him now. That is too much jealousy going on from him. Might also cite HIPAA to kick him out.

He's probably the reason for lots of your issues. If he can't trust you or a doctor...something is seriously wrong. You need to put your foot down or leave. That's an awful environment.

don't blame him honestly some couples have reasons to have trust issues.....
