For my situation my wife hasn’t gotten a diagnosis or new meds yet, the clinic got her blood test results however they won’t be able to go to the psychiatrist until some time this month, thats what her mother told me but I don’t know when it’ll be this month as I don’t want to annoy her family too much either. She still has only been to the psychiatrist once and is on 25mg of quetiapine. Her family have told me that they have made progress with her. She went from not trusting them to now she will talk to them, but not about a lot of things. She had a delusion about her aunts and cousins for several months that they were out to get her and sending bad energy/spells to her. To the point where she made me remove them and delete them, despite me not knowing them that well. Her family said she is no longer talking bad about them and doesn’t mind if she sees them on the street. However it seems like she hasn’t reestablished contact with them(from what I’ve seen on social media). She seems to be slowly coming out of this, I’ll emphasize slowly. She still thinks I cheated on her, and if I’m mentioned she tells her family to stop or she’ll have a meltdown.
I don’t know what is ahead of me in the coming weeks. I’d like to be reunited with her as soon as possible but I realize it’ll be several months at least. I’d like for it to soon at least get to the point where we’re talking again and can continue the relationship. She doesn’t know how much damage this has done to me mentally but I’m working on getting better.
I considered divorce due to this whole thing sending me on a spiral, however here in Ireland we can’t until we’ve been apart for 2 years. I ended up investigating the disease more and I’m trying my best to keep myself grounded so we can continue. I’m currently living with my parents for the sake of my mental health and I don’t think my wife and I should live together until that delusion of me cheating is gone. I’m 28, I’ll be 29 in October and she recently turned 32. We may have to live with family here in Ireland for a while as I’m saving up to buy a property for us to live on. I’m glad she’s safe and with her family but I do miss her a lot. She went from loving me a lot to treating me very coldly within a few weeks and it still bothers me. I’m just hoping she come out of this
