Marriage's need to be controlled, the alternative is a marriage OUT of control...
Ignore his controlling complaints, its classic for these circumstances
and again spouses often refuse to go to FT claiming they don't want to be told what to think... my WS when having an affair refused to go because she "[didn't] want to be brainwashed"
It's classic script EC, you need to stop the negotiating... I get the impression now you are going to try to talk your H into going to FT by asking questions...
Good luck, but I can tell you that his relationship with his FT is a completely diffrent one than the affair going on ...
What I am wondering is how an IC would even continue to SEE a patient who was having an affair... I would set my sites on ENDING THAT immeidately.. its only going to AGGRAVATE schizophrenia for goodness sakes... is this IC a co op student or something?
Good Lord.. that would be a HUGE RED LIGHT if i found my patient had schizophrenia and was having an affair...
