Hi MWG, I was really only jokin about the laceing his drink! I think/ know that drugs and treatment for depression has moved on and is probably light years away from what your H learnt about them. I have a family member in the profession and I know he continually studies and takes exams just to keep up and he is working in the industry and is an extremely clever person. I know that there is nothing you can do to persuade your H to see a Dr maybe when he is rushed in with something related to his high blood pressure he may be glad to have medical help. I hope that doesn't happen but extremely high BP gives little warning when it strikes, a stroke being a major possibility. Does he have a home kit that he uses or you could monitor. I guess you just continue with the prayers. I hope this isn't too gloomy but its very close to my heart having several close friends struck down with strokes simply because of stress and a refusal to take their BP seriously. Now they are trapped in useless bodies and it breaks my heart to see them in such a state.I continually urge all my friends to get checks. Hoping your feet feel better after a few days off work. We have had the most beautiful autumnal weather this week end-we so need that after virtually no summer. Guess it was nice for you to have a weekend without the freind of your sons about. Hoping you manage to get some sleep now he's gone.
