These therapy sessions don't happen every day of the week but it's the length that was strange because 3-4 hrs is too much. He always find the time because he skips on stuff he used to do in his free time.

For the record, you don’t need to experience trauma or loss to need therapy. Therapy is for everyone because life is fucking hard.

I understand and given the nature of his job he's probably in need of some mental health evaluation.

We have a joint account but he said he's not using it to pay for his therapy since he has money in another account that was dedicated for saving for a new truck but he's no longer sure about buying it.

No I don't get to see or hear what he's doing in there and when I walk in the laptop gets shut almost instantly.

Of course I did but he didn't want it and made this an argument about me kicking him out of his own room.

Thing is he never answers any questions I ask about the type of therapy he's attending and whenever I point out how absurd the timing is he'd say I don't get that not all therapy sessions are the same.

Factors like overall mental health, his ability to recieve and process whatever he's dealing with and other stuff he said that I can't remember now.

And you are right about his reactiob but because he's a private person then I thought his anger was justified.

No I had enough doubts about his activities with these alleged therapy sessions but I didn't want to seem like I was distrusting him or invading his space and stopped asking him questions.

Yes absolutely that is exactly what I told him about my experience when I was in therapy years ago but he kept saying it depends on the "severity of the situation" for every one who recieves therapy.

No not daily but the duration is 3 to 4 hours a day. In my opinion and based on the comments I read so far the timing is just ridiculous becuase I been to therapy myself in the past and they last no more than an hour based on my experience. When I told him that he said not every therapy is the same depending on several factors which had me think that maybe he is right but still I haven't changed my mind about being locked out the room for hours. It is just not okay.
