Guest guest Posted April 20, 2001 Report Share Posted April 20, 2001 Must be my twisted sense of humor. I believe the first post in which I encountered this "term of endearment" (DH) the woman was stating how unsupportive her spouse was of her. Made sense to me until I noticed others using it is a loving way. LOL!

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 Hi, I agree with what I've read in other replies, that the " tough " stance isn't going to work. And I think letting know that you understand that he apparently has trouble with the clothes, etc., not feeling right is OK too, give him a hug. Other parents have tried taking an item, say socks or a shirt, and in the evening or on a Sat. (not before school, etc.) having their child put on the item and try to wear it for a set number of minutes and then keep working up on the time it's worn. If your husband doesn't " get " the OCD (hey, it's hard for ME to figure out and understand at times but definitely interesting if TIRING!) then try the " sensory integration disorder " definition. Have you checked into SID? Here's a couple links but if you do an internet search on " tactile defensiveness " or " sensory integration disorder " or whatever, you'll pull up lots of info and could pick the one that describes 's feelings best. You might want to try occupational therapy for him if you haven't checked into it. But anyway, you can try and let your husband know that definitely is NOT the only child, even adult, to have these feelings/sensations. One of my kids has a reaction to some materials, makes him " shivery " as he puts it and he'll feel that way for hours. Luckily, it's not troublesome, but he did hate some new clothes, preferred wornout ones, prefers long sleeves, even wore jeans one summer! Here's a portion of one description I just pulled up though it probably doesn't ALL apply: Clothing - strong clothing preferences dislikes sleeves hitting wrists I only wears long or short sleeves; sensitive to collars hitting neck; does not want to wear a belt or anything that ties around the waist; is bothered by seams in clothing; prefers cotton; experiences difficulty manipulating buttons, zippers, snaps or ties; wants all tags in clothing removed; either wants feet and body totally covered or uncovered; insists on wearing a coat with the hood up in spite of hot weather; insists on wearing a T-shirt in spite of cold weather In the above, my 3 sons have gone thru: strong clothing preferences hates " tight " sleeves (tho WE have different ideas on what's tight) collars bothering them (choking!! ARRRGGGHHH! - yeah, right!) belts - yes they wear them but will NOT wear pants up to navel; has to be below (way too below from my point of view) seams bothersome cotton - some types bother, depends on how made tags removed, yes! have to have socks on but VERY particular about type of socks the long pants in summer, long sleeves (mentioned above) So yes, between my 3, we've been through a lot but luckily have apparently " outgrown " or something; except for 's " shivery " feelings at times and preference for long sleeves! Here's a couple links but you can find lots more: http://www.childhoodanxietynetwork.org/htm/sid.htm http://members.tripod.com/gigli/therapies/commonsensitivities.htm Anyway, just a thought to throw dad's way as to getting him to let up a little. I also " lose it " with my OCD son at times by complaining to him. Might make ME feel better but hasn't helped with him. I tried the " tough " approach in that I let him know I am TIRED of OCD, sort of nagged at him. This was when I felt he wasn't " working on " getting rid of any compulsions, etc. Every day for a while I'd say something, boy did I feel MEAN! But it didn't work, so I let up somewhat and he's actually improved lately, though I still throw in a " you have GOT to get over...... " whatever at the time (avoids some things due to OCD). OK, let us know how things go! Gotta go! > My DH thinks the way to deal with 's dressing problem ( such as shoes , shirt and socks " not feeling Right " ) is to stand over him and threaten to spank him ( which he does not) But he will stand there . shakes and cry's. But every day we go through the same thing for at least an hour he cries and won't get dressed. He says he does not like the way some things look or feel. I am so tired of dealing with it. My husband was home today and I just hide ( really!) and let him deal with him. It was hard, I wanted to hold him and make it all better but maybe I am making it worse. Maybe he has the right approach, although I do not like it. What do you guys think? Barb mom to OCD 5 > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 I figured on the husband, but didn't realize that everything that popped into my mind ( menstruating ) might equally apply.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 -I wondered about the DH. It could be dickhead too. But I was hoping it wasn't hehehe. My husband has been more that dear since I have been sick. Would be lost without his support and both my girls. It must be hard on them but they are my rock. I Love them so much. -- In achalasia , " Cindi Wilmot " <cindiscandles@s...> wrote: > Sometimes DH stands for Dumb Husband! LOL!

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 My DH took three months to clear up after going completely gluten free. The rash / blisters would appear symetrically on my body. Eg if I had it on one arm, it would also be at the same spot on my other arm.
