Iemik0, he always agreed to see marriage counsellor only when after his relapse. I guess he can't control himself too whenever it acts up.
Then next day, he will say no need to see, waste money, waste time. Hence up till now, have not even started seeing one.
I also suspected stocks may be another attribute factor which may aggravate his conditions. I talked until my mouth dry, he still very hook to it. I guess its very addictive, just like gambling, taking drugs etc
Regarding MCYS, i had a face-to-face talk with the MCYS social worker three weeks ago. She told me that if hubby is really suffering from mental condition, it will not be effective for him to see her, cos she is not a certified counsellor (they only attended short courses for counselling)
She advised me to find a certified counsellor instead. From there, the certified counsellor will let me know if he needs to see a psychiatrist or requires medication or not.
Not sure if he's really stress of not, cos sometimes i feel that he seemed to have over abused using the word "stress".
Eg: Whenever he noticed water inside the water pitcher is low, he told me that he felt very stress. When i asked him to help me wash pump equipment (once - twice a week), he told me that he felt very stressed up when washing it.
So far never heard from him that he felt stress when sleeping, eating, watching TV, playing computer games etc.
