Well then, if he's too lazy or selfish to see a counsellor and wants to take charge of your medication regimen, to "save you". He needs to get his butt back into school and become a licensed therapist. Then go back to school again to get a doctorate in psychiatric medicine. It would still be a breach of ethics to practice medicine on you, but at least he might actually have a rudimentary knowledge of what the hell he's flapping his gums about.
You wanted to be told to hide your meds? Yup. Hiding them would be a sound strategy, especially considering they will be stolen the instant you aren't looking.
and he has been watching and I am doing so much better
Huh. Funny coincidence that.
Also, if he's still reading this. I have a question (several actually) for him.
Everything written from this point, is directed solely at the husband.
If you were to have a medical condition such as asthma, diabetes, hypertension or severe allergy. Would it be acceptable if your wife threw out your inhaler?
Or what about your insulin, hypertension medication or epi-pen (used to treat anaphylaxis)?
What makes you think it's acceptable or safe to suddenly deprive your wife of a medication that alters her brain chemistry?
It isn't. At all.
It is likely to make her unstable.
With the amount of time you likely wasted to open all the caplets, dump out the contents and actually put then back together again. You could have been sitting in a marriage counsellors office, doing something actually beneficial for your wife. Why did you do that in the first place? Do you really have such a low opinion of your wife, that she would actually fall for that? Unbelievable.
You really want to help her get off the meds? Then help her.
Go to the marriage counsellor, read more on this site about what she struggles with. Talk to her, not at her.
Finally, if you think your wife has a drug problem. Why the hell do you keep a big bag of pot in the house?
That would be like moving an alcoholic into a wine cellar.
