I really don't know where to start. My
wife and I have been together for ten
years, we married only 10 months ago. We
lost our pregnancy on the day (night) that
we were married. It seems as though
everything went down his from there. We
actually had another miscarriage seven
months prior to the second as well.
About four months ago my wife started
accusing me of of just about everything in
the world that can one can be accused of.
She said i was cheating on her, had a baby
with another woman, and that i was talking
with the police to have her arrested for
life. she was taking Seragouel (sp?)
during that time, but got off of the
medication because she didn't want to take
it. we argued all of the time due to the
nonstop accusations and eventually she
started telling me that she was afraid of
me. The next thing I know she has me
locked up. I went to jail three times
total across three weeks. eventually when
I went to court I was cleared of
everything because my wife's mental
illness was obvious at time when she took
the stand. unfortunately I had to get an
apartment and have stayed away fro almost
three months due to all of this. when I
speak to me wife now she is completely
delusional. She claims that she hears
voices (or in her words "a two way radio"
from the FBI or SBI) that keeps her up all
night.
I am tired of being passive about his as
my wife needs help, but no one will
listen. When I spoke to mental health they
looked at me as an abuser because of the
charges (communication threats) she took
out on me. No one there wanted to help. my
wife constantly says that she is going to
jail for life (no basis in reality) and
will not hear anything form me that
conflicts with her beliefs.
her aunt FINALLY sees there is a mental
problem and took her to a local mental
health institution and they set her up for
a once a week meeting and placed her back
on the same medication as before. the
doctor asked her aunt things lie, "how do
you now she is not telling h truth?" and
'how do you know her husband isn't
abusive?", so it goes without saying that
I have no faith in their institution.
I miss my wife and I worry about her every
minute, how do i get her help? How do i be
help in my weird situation? everyone
thinks it's better for me to stay away as
i seem to make her worse when i speak with
her. she turns everything I say around
into something outlandish. I have no idea
what to do? Please help...

I'm sorry about what you're going thru,
about your wife hearing voices, I'm not an
expert but someone close to me is or
rather had the same symptom she was
dignosed as schizophrenic. Have you told
the doctor about the symptom?

thanks you for concern. unfortunately i
have no contact with her doctor. the only
way i know what is going on ins her aunt.
my bipolar ex said he sometimes can hear a
transistor radio playing old time country
music within the walls of his home. I
don't think just because one hears
voices/noises, that classifies them as a
schizophrenic. Having delusions falls
under bipolar as well.
Make sure your wife is getting the proper
medications. But if she's not, give her
the space she needs.
