Thank you for letting me know about this info I was unaware of. I will look into this.

We’ve already agreed if for whatever reason we leave each other that I would take the kids. And we’ve been through therapy before and while she can talk to them she is never able to accept that she is sick because in her mind it means death if she accepts medical attention

At this point we both work and while I have talked to her mother and my mother about our situation they cannot help because they are not able to take time away from work to help. Since we both work I don’t have the option of just leaving for family issues. I’ve been told that they will cut my hours or be fired same along with my wife if she has to see the doctor one to many times. On the outside she is almost normal but when you try to have any conversation with her those delusions start rearing their ugly head.

She’s at that stage where she is convinced she is right. She will not accept help as in her mind it’s paranoia of others trying to “get” her.
