Killing out of jealousy- the Othello syndrome

[@ReeReeinSC]

I have gone through all of the things you mentioned except physical violence but he has come close to it several times recently. My current situation is separated 4 months due to threatening to kill me. A protection order was issued as well as no contact orders. The protection order has officially been violated twice; once for contact through messenger and once for stalking with the order in effect. The stalking was being done about 20 yards from my back door. I was actually going in an out of the back door and had no idea he was right there watching me. When arrested he had both binoculars and a handgun. Because he is no doubt delusional and believes I have done all of the things his mind tells him I've done coupled with the fact that nothing is ever his fault and there is nothing wrong with his way of thinking, I live in fear that he will make an attempt on my life sooner or later. He has been incarcerated for 4 weeks for the stalking and I can only imagine the rage he feels toward me because in his mind it is my fault that he is in jail for stalking. Court orders are meaningless to him and he doesn't fear law enforcement. He began violating the order of protection and no contact the same day it was ordered. I'm sure he has had plenty of time to plan how he will seek revenge against me for what I haven't done! He's 70, I'm 61. I really didn't think I'd be spending my "golden years" broke, disgusted and devastated. This illness is not for the meek and mild. You either set bounderies made out of steel, ignore pretty much everything they say because they're trying to push your buttons, try to find something that remotely resembles normaL (yeah right) or get the hell out and go 100% NO CONTACT! The person you love has left the building and chances are he will never be back. You just have to grieve it, accept it, heal some and move on as best you can. Anything is better that what you've been through! Thanks for the video and sorry for rambeling on!

Omg im so sorry, i seen this for my future but I couldn’t even stay longer because he lost his mind, he hasnt hit me but definitely is becoming violent dragging me out of my own room, he did strangle me for a few seconds hard enough to leave marks all over my neck. Most days i would wake up to him staring at me like a madman, this illness is absolutely terrifying. Im all alone with my son, he destroyed me financially and im scared.

I dated someone briefly who had this, which was absolutely insane. He had comorbid OCD.

Thanks for this amazing video! 💕 It’s short and concise! And I love the way you speak! 🗣 A question, though: in one of your videos you said yourself you’re a jealous one yourself! Is there a chance you are Othello, too? ☠️

[@5MinutePsychology]

Thanks very much for this comment! Luckily for me there a loooong way from being jealous and Othello syndrome 🙃

As one of your most experienced subscriber can I request another topic? On your channel I found a video about feminist counselling: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnK3kqaOZd2BmLs If I remember correctly you counsel immigrants from war torn countries like Ukraine, true? If so, can you please make a video about some specificity of counselling people of different cultures? My shrink to,d me it’s tough! Is there a chance for a video like this? Please! Pretty please.

[@5MinutePsychology]

Thanks for remembering that! Yes! I am currently living in a Ukraine’s neighbouring country. There are a lot of people in need. You know what, yes! It’s a good idea. I will do my best to post a video on this topic still this week. Do you think the topic will be interesting for others, too?

Is it curable completely or it cant be cured and break up or divorce is a solution. Can medication help? And medication must be taken for life time? My lovers symptoms are increasing day by day he accused me of sex with receptionist inside clinic of our psychologist and made our therapist to confess that i had sex with receptionist at clinic in presence of our therapist by beating her.

[@5MinutePsychology]

Oh, my! I am sorry to hear that. Yes, it is curable and the way of treatment will depend on the particular patient. But there's a good chance to solve the issue without the divorce
