My husband is the worst hypochondriac I have ever met. EVERY DAY there is something wrong with him. His back, his neck, his head, his nose, his ear, his hair, his knee, his foot, his heel, his toe, his eyes, he can't hear, he can't see, he can't feel anything in his liver...ok that last one was a stretch but the rest are NOT. He is NEVER just "ok". There is never a day he wakes up and feels "good". I am sick and tired of it. It's starting to disgust me. Does ANYONE have experience dealing with this type of thing?? I have tried babying him, telling him to go to the Dr./ER, MAKING him go to the doctor( they cant ever find anything), ignoring him, yelling at him...nothing has stopped him. And for those of you who are going to say "well then leave him"...I am WORKING ON IT. So save it.
Um no I would not suggest leaving him for being a hypochondriac. If he truly is, it is a treatable psychiatric condition. Have him see a therapist.
There are many, many more reasons why I am leaving him, not just this one. He won't GO to a therapist. I have tried many times. He thinks he is above it.
Quoting Mrs_Incredible:Um no I would not suggest leaving him for being a hypochondriac. If he truly is, it is a treatable psychiatric condition. Have him see a therapist.
Oh my, that would be annoying! Can you make him go to a psychiatrist?
my mom is this way and every time she has the kids she thinks they are sick too. some one always feels warm to her or is coughing alot. its very annoying n never gets better. i just ignore her. sometimes when im board ill google disorders to bring up in the next convo just to see how many i can get her to think she has.
Sounds like that is just one of many reason why he is so annoying to you. There is a lot more to the whole picture than you are telling on here. Which is fine, that is your business and for you and your husband to deal with. I do understand why something like this is pulling you down. I cannot stand people who constantly complain about something just for the sake of complaining, or trying to get others to feel sorry for them. I decided to ignore it when I know for a fact that someone is just putting on a show.
