Never heard of this, but you do need advice and help in case it turns out to be a Why Oh Why Delilah situation.

If he won’t admit and get help you do need help. Maybe MIND would be able to help you or at least point you in the right direction. It is a very rare disorder.

I would phone 111 for additional advice. Your gp doesn’t sound very proactive?

Anyone had any experience living with a husband with Othello syndrome? Delusional jealousy? I called my GP for advice on how to handle this and she said there is nothing we can do without his permission. However, he feels his jealousy is real.
I have never been unfaithful.
