I want to strangle him too

Kate

That's a horrible anecdote. I also don't agree that he shouldn't be more interested in your medical problems. I've had a few arise since I started seeing my current therapist. She's not a doctor; she can't give me a lot of advice, but she can certainly empathically listen and does, and generally wants to explore how these medical problems might be adding stress to my life and affecting my mood.

I think it's well and good to try to push you to find the right medical solution, although NOT with that anecdote. However, to be totally uninterested ignores the extent to which out mental health is inextricably tied to our physical health.
