Mamas with depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders

How would you feel?

My husband wants to email my therapist about concerns he has for me so she can work on them with me. He keeps saying that I’ve lied about everything since we’ve met but I haven’t. If he questions you and doesn’t believe what you say then in his head it’s automatically a lie. I can’t post the rest of the screenshot but I basically told him I know he’s gonna email her anyway so go ahead and do it. It’s probably some HIPPA law against that anyway so I doubt she would reply or acknowledge the email. I feel like if you want to fix our relationship call a couples counselor not my therapist that I’ve been working with for 4 years. I just feel like this is another way to control me. He’s already moved me away from my family and friends and I feel isolated what’s the point of emailing the one outlet I do have. How would you feel if your husband or partner did this?

There is zero reason for him to talk to your therapist.

Agree about the controlling man. Id leave him asap because f that mess.

That’s not right of him to do. I’d be really frustrated if that were my husband. 😢

wait whaaaat??🤯 what abt doctor patient confidentiality and all that??

It really depends on the motive for you tbh, because to me my husband knows everything, I would talk to him about therapy appointments and talk to him about what happened in them I would also like to think if he's seeing somthing I'm not he would bring it up to me and my therapist to work through it properly and appropriately because my life and my issues are also my husbands and everything I do affects him and vice versa, if you don't work through things as a team and do things separately it's not a marriage or a partnership

😳 that seems…. wtf. You’re not his child to be “managing”. This sounds like something my mom would do with my childhood therapist as like “things we think she needs to work on”.
NOT FROM MY HUSBAND.

Does he genuinely think you’re a pathological liar or is he just making shit up? Like what is he basing that off of?

That sounds BEYOND controlling and just. Not at all okay. Paired with his obviously alienation from everyone, even worse.

Universal credit and having a job

Is there anyway to work part time and continue receiving the same amount of money from universal credit? I've heard if you work 16 hours or less, your Universal credit money doesn't change.

I have a toddler and I'm pregnant so I kind of need to earn abit more money.. just wondering what my options are

Making friends

Is anyone else in the same situation as me. I want to make some mom friends who would like to meet up and go on play dates and walks or just a general catch up over a tea/coffee. But at the same time I’m shy I have a 2 year old little girl and a 1 year old little also.
Would anyone be willing to meet up and start a friendship.
