I dunno if that changes anything. Maybe speak to whatever doctor he has or perscribed him the meds about his refusal of use. I'm sure its not an unheard of issue.
Going to reply here and not entertain your other comments which my close friend duft decided to rile up.
Right now it’s a battle of how much he can take and how close together, the issue is his medication wears off before his next dose. We’re close to making a transition to taking his pills every 6 hours instead of every 8.
Like I’ve stated, when he’s medicated, he happily takes his next dose, when the medication has worn off it’s “Screw that, screw my job, I’m going to Texas”
The /only/ time I ever slip him his medication is when he’s having an episode.
I brought up his refusal to take his medication, and the strategic solution is in the second section in my above comment. In short: he won’t take his medication because he becomes unreasonable before his next dose, solution, he will take his next dose before becoming unreasonable.
I was told to “make sure he takes them” and that’s what I do. He may not “take” them but they are in eventually.
Exactly, if this was real she would consult his doctor rather than trolling on this site. This kind of story gets posted about every other week too, most likely just some weirdo looking for attention.
It could quite possibly be a troll. And it does make it suspicious that no medical authorities were mentioned, but I'm bored so I'll play along just in case haha.
Yeah lol they asked our opinion then got bitchy when it was given, so fuck'em. I am pretty sure no doctor would recommend sneaking medications into a "harmless" adult's food like he is a dog.
Yeah I hate OP's who won't stfu and listen to people. Why would you post if you don't care what anyone thinks and aren't open minded? And yeah, no fucking way a doctor would tell her to sneak it in.
I don't think OP is a troll, but I do think she's in a very difficult situation and I feel sorry for her. However, I don't believe that's a good reason for secretly medicating her husband.
My late father was weird & paranoid most of his life, but became even more so in old age. My mother mentioned it to their gp, who prescribed valium, telling him it was a "tonic to make him feel better", which it did. However I think that doctor was unethical to do so, although I understand my mother supporting it, because her life was much more peaceful after that. Eventually after my father died her life was much more peaceful and even fun without him around being suspicious of everyone.
If its not, then I agree with you on the idea of sneaking meds. Either way though don't you think we need to hear about what his doctor thinks of all this. The fact that that was left out baffles me.
She does say something like being told to make sure he takes his medication, which is the sort of useless advice some doctor give without any details of how she could actually do that. If I were her I'd be trying to set up a meeting with her husband and his prescribing doctor about the medication.
Would you force/sneak your s/o to take medicine they need?

Still no mention of what the prescribing doctor has to say about any of this, which is all that would really matter.
