Good Morning D! Sounds like your wife is a bit scared that the issues are coming to the surface and I think you're right about the OM creating a "high" so she temporarily feels better. Might take some time for her to get the courage and deal with "her stuff"..rather than avoid, run and project.
I think the DBing-validation detachment is goig to help a lot n your situation. Hang in there!
