This is my situation.My partner and i had a baby ten weeks ago,my partner has been on citalopram for most of the pregnancy and still is,she has a history of depression,recently she scored very high for postnatal depression when the health worker gave her a questioaire to fill out.
Against all of my reasoning with her she intends to ingest Mescaline containing cacti this saturday,for all of you that don`t know what that is,it is a cacti that contains an illegal drug that is similar in it`s action to LSD or acid as it was commonly reffered to back in the 60`s and 70`s,Mescaline is a very powerful mind altering drug that is pschedelic in it`s effects and lasts anywhere up to 10 or 12 hours.
My partner has stopped taking her medication so that she can take this cactus,she believes that it will heal her,she believes it will improve all of our lives,i have also told her to tell her doctor what she intends to do,she told me she did and that the doctor said it was ok and that he will monitor her...This i find hard to believe so i have contacted the surgery and am waiting for him to telephone me back.
I don`t know what else to do,regardless of how i feel or what i say she will do what she wants,she doesn`t really consider me,she also intends to do Ayahuasca in the future which is another hallucinogenic drug that is illegal and is very powerful.I don`t think i can continue to be in a relationship with someone who disregards me in this way,even if she was to be healed,even if she became a better person for indulging in these drugs it still doesn`t change that fact.The woman who she is doing this with i do not like,i believe she is not a good influence to our family,i protested to my partner not to take our little boy round to this womans house,but she ignored my wishes,i have done all i possibly can to help my partner but it seems it is not enough,it seems that our family life is not enough,i believe she is taking an unecessary risk with her mental health.
I think of my boys future and don`t know weather to stay for his sake so that i may have an influence in his upbringing but i feel that i wouldn`t have much influence anyway,and i don`t want to argue with my partner about these things as it is a waste of time and energy,this whole situation is getting me down to the point of not feeling well anymore,i`m looking for someone to tell me what to do,but i know only i can decide,am i being unreasonable about all of this? Am i wrong? Am i to blame? Please could you give me your opinions on what maybe i can do...Please help!
