Relationship ; Paranoid Posted: 10-09-05 11:28am
I'm in a relationship with my partner who
i've been with for 4 years. From the
beginning i've always been paranoid he's
cheating on me, he keeps telling me he's
not and never has, and I want to believe
him. The problem is i'm so paranoid all
the time I cant help it, I get so wound up
when he's not at home it makes me worse.
The more I accuse him of seeing other
people behind my back it pushes him away
more. And now are relationship is on the
rocks due to my paranoir. How can I stop
being so paranoid and save this
relationship. As we have a 2 year old son
together and we really do love each other.
Help!!!

Hi there! Think of your son each time
you get this feeling or you might try
talking to a professional about this
problem as trust is a very big part of a
marriage.
Good luck to you and yours! Keep us
posted on how you are doing. Sometimes
it just feels good just to write it down
as this sometimes helps to get it out of
your system.

I think that, unless you haven't already
tried, sitting down with your boyfriend
and explaining or showing him the post you
made here about how you feel paranoid for
some unapparent reason can help work
things out. I don't know about your past
life, as in if anyone had cheated on you
or etc to make you feel this way before,
so I won't tell you that you have an
anxiety disorder because humans tend to
develop certain feelings about things if
it happens enough.
I do agree with seeing a doctor for
therapy if you believe you have some sort
of disorder. I wish I could help you
more, but I don't want to delve into your
private life :)
