Jealousy is such a wasted emotional drain in my opinion. Having been cheated on early in life several times I asked my husband to just be honest if he was interested in someone else to just tell me and move on. We agreed and we have been together for 36 years. I refused to even think about this subject and it's given us both such freedom to live our lives trusting not in fidelity but open honesty even when the words were things we didn't want to hear. This works for us. Negative emotions are very bad for your health.

My wife suffers from this and it's no laughing matter. While the episodes do not happen everyday, they creep up and manifest in acute, rage-filled events where she becomes a whole different person. We've been together for 30 years (married for more than 20) and for the last ten years during these episodes she has accused me of sexual affairs with most of our friends (I should say former friends, since the relationships have been severed because of this illness) including both the male and female partners of the couples, with my work partners, with clients, and even with her own father. When she gets revved up, there is no way to escape the strength of the delusional illogic, since it is almost impossible to disprove a negative. Currently, we are separated, as the last episode led to her calling the police and telling them that I was poisoning her food. If you are in such a relationship, be careful. The threats perceived by the jealous spouse are so strong that they may lead to violence on their part. I have been punched, pushed etc., while my wife is going through these episodes. There's no substance abuse on her part, but I do believe there is something organic happening, almost like a paranoid schizophrenic. If anyone has a similar experience or could share resources, I would appreciate hearing from you.

No matter what I say, what I show to the wife. She won't listen or believe. She tried to hit me today. It saddens me, I hoped to spent my life with her. But now it seems impossible.

Yes! I thought I was alone. I just started reading and educating myself recently. This is my wife exactly, "While the episodes do not happen everyday, they creep up and manifest in acute, rage-filled events where she becomes a whole different person." She says she thinks about the infidelity constantly. (I have never been unfaithful) Married 35 years. I am not going to end the marriage. I believe I should give her the best care I can. I am wondering if I should show her these videos and information I have found? I think it would make her mad. We are seeing a marriage counselor. The counselor has recommended a psychiatrist, my wife is not opposed to the psychiatrist. I made an appointment, but, she thinks it is for my benefit. I originally thought I was the one being tormented, but, the torment is the same for her. We have endured 4 years so far. We have been in counseling for almost a year, the rage filled episodes have mostly turned into discussions. She will never believe I haven't had an affair. I am going to try and make us as comfortable as possible for the rest of our lives. Perhaps someone should start a support group for the accused. I can truly feel the pain for all of you going through this condition. I have read some cases where the delusion goes completely away and cases where the delusions have been managed to make a decent life. I pray that everyone out there would have one of these outcomes. I have been strongly rooted in the Christian faith with the knowledge that Jesus is God. This faith is the only thing that has kept me alive.

I'm not sure how long he had dealt with this before meeting me but it was several years and has gone untreated to this day. I believe there is schizophrenia and neurological and physical damage also involved. We would have a normal day, maybe go somewhere to eat and then a day or two later he would suddenly come out of nowhere saying things had happened at the restaurant involving me and the waiter who served us being in a restroom having sex and he comes in and sees us. He believes these things are real and will not hear otherwise. I was abused , had guns pulled on me several times in his fits of rage . Many of his dillusions involved sex and violence. He had a dillusion that me and his sister had fought. I told her about it and she even tried to tell him this never happened. Ultimately I had to get away, he is not willing to get treatment and he was unsafe to be around.

My boyfriend has periods where he is like this. He believes I cheat on him with one of HIS coworkers. Based upon our Facebook online statuses lining up. (Me and other man aren’t even friends, on Facebook or in real life. We’ve only met a handful of times at work events) So there’s no real correlation. Only my boyfriend’s perceived correlation. It’s hellish when he disappears for days at a time, thinking I’ve been cheating. I love him dearly because when he is good, he is really good. But the accusations suck and I’m not that kind of person so it’s painful to have my character/ goodness questioned so much. It feels like my value is diminishing with every episode. It’s gotten the point it’s really starting to wear me down. A couple particular incidents involving the accusations have left me with deep emotional trauma that I’ve had to bury, as well. It sucks. He’s never been violent or scary about it, though. Ugh

He's literally told us that she doesn't love us like she loves him & that he knows she gave birth to us but she is HIS MOTHER. Him & my sister are twins 🤔 She isolated him so much and put him the role of " man of the house" when he was about 7 yrs old somehow they've developed a very strange very dependant on one another relationship. It's hard to process it and impossible to understand. My brother is so emotionally crippled he's never been able to have a relationship with a woman . He's 48. He's had girls in & out of his life but he only sees them as a means to an end. If they have something he wants he'll stalk them and pounce on them like a wild cat skillfully sneaking up on it's prey until the moment is right to pounce & over take them. And my mother has viciously hated these women. It's been sad and confusing to watch throughout my life

I have been in this kind of relationship and life has become worse due to it. Immediately after marriage my wife wanted to know about my past which I thought was ok. But things started getting bad to worse day by day. At severest form I was needed to carry phone {on} continuously with me when at work and she would hear from other side what I was talking, what others were talking to me and themselves also. I was not allowed to watch TV, even News channel to prevent me having a look at females. She would follow me on GPS to know my route taken to reach workplace. constantly ask me why I got late even by a minute or two due to traffic. she would call on land line in office to check if i was really there, would make me video calls to see who is around me. Even after that I needed to speak everything on oath to clarify that i was not in relationship with other women. We had no relation as husband and wife because she feared I have contracted HIV and forced me to do test for same at least thrice. and when reports came negative, she used to say I must be using protection to prevent HIV infection. But if this thing kept aside, she happened to be very intelligent lady and nobody including my parents (leave aside her parents) would think that she was wrong somewhere.

I am losing him more everyday (he has left me twice because of this and has came back each time with the hope that it would change) but somehow even after those wake up calls I can’t seem to get control over the fear of betrayal. I’m always hyper vigilant, imagining that when we aren’t together he’s without a doubt with another woman, checking for ‘clues’ that technically don’t exist. Why? Why are we like this? I have been trying to better myself for months and even though I have made some small progress, it’s always there. The constant jealousy and paranoia. I don’t understand. It is truly destroying what could have otherwise been the greatest love story of my life. He went from “i cant wait to marry you” 10 months ago to “i still love you but every time you accuse me of something I didn’t do I love you a little less.” This morning I had another ‘episode’ and he finally told me he wasn’t ‘in love’ with me anymore because of this.

@@chloelafond1957 if I had the answer I would tell you. Right now I’m simply trying to get out of the habit of thinking/ acting this way and treat it like an alcoholic would treat alcohol if they were trying to quit. Assuming your partner really isn’t doing anything and it’s all you…. Everytime I think those thoughts, or try to ask for reassurance, I boss myself around a little and tell myself no and immediately re-direct to something else. Like an alcoholic would need to stop himself from thinking of boos and taking a drink, or if he tried to just have 1 drink (-ask your partner a question) To stop himself and go distract with something else. I’ve tried every sort of therapy and it hasn’t worked- so I’m down to this. It’s a habit for me at this point, a way of thinking, and I’m trying to re wire my brain. I love my husband I want there to be a short cut or an easier softer way to overcome this, but it doesn’t seem like there is one besides taking control of myself more, if that makes sense. For me at least, I have to work hard and stay away from anything related to jealousy/insecurity until my brain gets the message to stop wiring immediately in that direction. Who knows how long it will take- but it’s better than dyeing alone. Like I said I’ve tried everything else, short of hypnosis and meds…. I want to do this naturally but will resort to medication if I can’t get out of this habit/way of thinking in a year. That’s my goal I gave myself. When I mess up and ask my husband a question about another woman, I think of that as a relapse (like an alcoholic) and make a resolve to try again the next day. This is helping so far. I used to let my thoughts and emotions completely over take me… and they still do this time. But I realized that wasn’t getting me anywhere, and I can’t trust my thoughts and my perceptions at this point, they are only hurting me now and not helping me. CBT and DBT or good they have workbooks on Amazon. But I’m really in no position to give advice as I am still working on this, just sharing ideas. I’m going to do this for a while and resist from shaming myself of if I mess up. That’s not beneficial either. I give myself lots of positive pep talks and keep at it. I have faith it will get better and I faith it will get better for you too if you don’t give up and keep working at it and try different things. Not just for the man in your life… but so YOU can be free of this and enjoy life for what it has to offer. 🩷

As a literary scholar, I do not agree that Othello's problem is jealousy. Near the beginning of the play, Iago describes Othello's fatal flaw, namely, that he believes people are as they appear to be. When Iago then tells Othello lies about Desdemona, Othello remarks that Iago appears to be an honorable man, therefore, he feels compelled believe Iago's lies, never suspecting his true motive. Is there a name for people who suffer from this delusion? If not, there should be!

My wife thinks that every mutter that I make is some sort of sexual desire for a woman and I have to immediately repeat that mutter out loud, although I may not even remember what it was. I work at home, I don't go anywhere, but of course there are vast numbers of "whores" whom she believes desire me. At times, I have to walk in public bent over with my head facing down lest some woman cross my path.

I can relate with it. she compelled me to take car reverse without looking back, otherwise I could watch some lady behind. Once I met with a minor accident due to this when taking car out of parking. When in park or public space, or theatre or hotel, I had to look at my shoes to avoid getting "caught" watching a lady of any age- 5 to 70 year or over also.

I got a name for this kind "Narcissist" and i think its a cultural curse-side effect. Sawry to say, jus see some cultures teaching this type of attitude.
