As a student psychiatric nurse i can definatey say no. its the same theory as if a person went into prison, they come out knowing far more about crime and are more likely to fall back into it. It would be better for the person in question to spen some time with a councillor, but i dont think there is a condition known as pathological jealousy! not to me anyway. Perhaps there is some deep rooted emotional problem that disables hthis person from being able to trust another. mental institutions do not work and should be shut down, the worst thing that you want, is for a perfectly sane person (in all probability) to be locked up in a house full of insane people as the outcome would be far worse.

Chronic jealousy is a curse, a mental disorder. I have known friends who have destroyed relationships and themselves over vain jealousy of their gf or wives. One friend had his wife leave him over it and she never ever cheated on him. It's really a mental problem and probably has to do with trust issues with you. I would se a psychologist and work through it otherwise your life will be hell. Just as bad as someone who lets say is an alcoholic, or suffers from some other grave psychological or mental affliction. Get free of it and enjoy life. Life's too short to be all f****** up over jealousy feelings. I am married and I look at it this way. I trust my wife, but if I ever find out actual evidence that she has cheated or seeing another guy, I will kill the guy and beat her up. I mean that! But I won't waste my time over empty suspicions or meaningless jealousy that has no basis in fact or reality. I am not that insecure and you shouldn’t be either!

I don't really think JEALOUSY is a mental problem, unless it is to an extreme. Such as, the jealous man, killing another man for looking at his wife/gf. If that happens, I'm sure the person would be trialed for murder, plead insanity, and then put into a mental hospital.

However, I don't think being locked up in a Mental Hospital would cure him of that.

Speaking from personal experience, being in a mental hospital won't cure you of your jealousy, but it will help open your eyes to the wrongness of it and allow yourself to fix the problems. When I went in the second time, I was forced into the hospitalization. Angry, resentful, and completely pissed at my psychiatrist and mom. The programs they do in there makes you search deep inside you for the answers to the questions you ask yourself. It's basically a step-by-step self help, just not one a lot of people would consider.

hmm i don't think so. Being closed in would protect others but it would not cure a terrible thought process...could even make it worse. I think its a good idea to seclude harmful people but at the same time try to make THIER habitations as rehabilitating as possible...let them outside in monitored areas once in a while etc

No. The person has to learn to control the jealous streak. If they can not, get away or they will shut you out from everyone else and you will end up depressed and alone.

I really don't see that as a bad thing, it's more of a insecurity. My ex was the exact same way. She was just afraid that I would leave her. All you have to do (even though you heard it a hundred times) is establish trust.

There is no cure for that. He needs to find the right partner that will accept that.

If it's that serious, you're best off getting out of the relationship.

It could probably help, but there are a lot easier ways. If it's really a chemical inbalance, and not just a bad personality trait they have, medication can probably help them, or even surgery
