I am not sure where to jump in here, so here I am.. On last stretch of effexor. My BF is breaking up with me because he thinks I am having or had an affair. He couldnt be further from the truth. He thinks I should pay for what he is thinking, he is twisting everyting mentally to make me feel like I am nuts and evil. I am now wondering am I? Is this what this drug has done? I couldn't tell between real and not real? I am really confused at this point. Maybe I am mentally ill after all. WOW I really need to think this one through? I think hes nuts, he thinks i am. I think this requires a completely different therapy group..

Sounds like it’s a toxic relationship. Mental disorder or not, the way you describe it makes it sound as if he has some sort of paranoid vindictiveness at work here. People give off vibes and strange behaviors other people pick up and interpret. Sounds like his radar and interpretation faculties are bent. Maybe he has an undiagnosed issue or just wants to end things in a bizarre but harmful manner.

Regardless, the situation doesn’t leave me entirely convinced that he or a successful relationship with him is in your interests. It’s easy to beat up in ones self for thoughts and behaviors, you don’t need anyone else’s help doing that.
