It sounds like your husband has a mental illness which could be schizophrenia or bi-polar disorder. The drinking is a sign he was medicating himself. He needs to see a mental health professional right away. Our son had similar episodes and became a completely different and scary person. We are Christians and believed for a while that that would be enough to get him through. It was not enough. We took him to an inpatient treatment center where they diagnosed him as bi-polar. Within 2 weeks of being on the right medicine, he began seeming more normal than he had in months. If he has a mental illness, remember, he can't help it. There is hope with treatment and medication that he can lead a normal life. Don't let people tell you that church is enough. God made doctor's too!

Well i would say that he needs help and he needs it soon, i would not let him back into the house, get a restraining order, to keep him away from you and your kids, and the house, right now he is unstable, and people like him can fool mental health people , they need to see and hear the things that he is saying to you and the kids, and yes if he has been having affairs with men and women, well i think i would have to end that relationship, cause you really do not know what disease he could be caring, so you need to have someone over there, that can say yes to mental health that these stuff is going on that they have been there and listen to it, or even record it, but you need to get some kind of proof that he is really going off of this rocker. Just to stop drinking cold turkey could of started it, and made it a lot worse, then he started to let you know all of the things that he has been doing.
so you really need to get him to go off at mental health, or in an er , where they will see what you are talking about, and get him into some kind of treatment. You take care of your self and your kids, god bless and be with you, and get him some help.

This sounds like he is in need of some medical help. What did the pastors say?
I have heard of when you quit drinking that it can cause some serious health problems, expecially if he was a long time drinker. Please get your husband some medical help. This man sounds like he is no longer the man that you married. But you are married to him, HELP him, even if its just a phone call to your mother in law. What do they think of his actions? Do they talk with you? I would not be letting him be lone with the child at this time. Make sure that someone is with him.
As far as him being unfaithful to you in your marriage, that REALLY sucks! Dont let him get away with it, that is not acceptable. I would be going to the Dr. myself and have every test possible done.ASAP!!!! Your health is the most important thing right now, make sure that you are healthy. Tell him to go to the doctors now, offer to take him, pay for a cab, call a friend, but dont let this man suffer, He really sounds sick,
Good luck...... stay strong...... prayers for your family

I want you to know you just blew it for all the people out there that want to quit smoking and drinking.....Just a joke to lighten things up a bit. I think he got on something else when he gave up the smoking and drinking. OR he is crazy and the quiting gave him a chemical imbalance in his brain.
You have to protect your children first. Which means getting him out of the house. He not safe to be around. Get rid of him before he kills someone. Call for help in getting him in for evaluation. They keep them like 72 hours. If you can't do that, then you and the kids go somewhere. I wouldn't spend one more night in the same house with him. It will be on your conscience the rest of your life if an innocent person gets hurt.

First off, I am a pretty conservative Christian.. Very active at church.. and I have to tell you ... that you are right, this is not normal.. I would take the kids and go to a family members home.
I can not understand why his family does not get him help.
He sounds like he is suffering from guilt.. and thinks that a promise to God will deliver him.. As a Christian we can not make those kinds of promises to God..
He really needs help.. and you and your children need to be safe.
I would hope that this does not turn you away from God... as it is not God's fault that we falter and then quack out using his name.
I will pray for you ... and I am sorry you are going through this.

I'm not real sure what you are wanting from us as feedback or a response... Your husband obviously has some serious issues. He has an addictive personality and takes things to extremes, he replaced his drinking, smoking and sexual activities with religion. Both can be equally unhealthy! As sad as it is you really need to get yourself and your children out of the situation.

Help? Re-read everything you wrote. He has some mental problems that you cannot help him with. Becoming overly religious and talking about talking in his head about demons and GOD is one sign of mental illness, as this could mean he is hearing voices, and this sounds like schzophrenia. He also confessed that he is bi-sexual. You need to go to counseling so that you will be able to get through this. You also need to go to the doctor and be tested for HIV/AIDS and STDs. He is well on his way to becoming very dangerous for you and your children to be with.

Your hubby needs to be taken to an Emergency Room and evaluated by a mental health professioanl. It may be that his true illness was masked by the alcohol. He sounds like he is dellusional and without help it will only get worse.
If you can't him to go...then you and the kids need to go..away from him.

Im not sure the kind of help you need can be administered on the internet. Id get some counseling for you and him. Sound like you will need decades. Good luck!

Run Forest Run. He sounds a little scary, OK alot scary. But he has to be addicted to something because that's his personality. Sure wish he would have taken up jogging or working out.
