it is illegal for a therapist to tell someone to do anything. The patient doesn't have to do what they say at all. Fact. Therapists can prescribe medicines and suggest excersizes and activites but they cant say, 'go home and break all of your windows' or 'abandon your wife and unborn child' and why anyone would even CONSIDER that is beyond me. There are so many ways to reduce stress. Try looking for some stress relieving activities for you two to do together. It may even help with the pregnancy. Also, you should probably ask your husband to go see another therapist, maybe one that doesnt need a therapist Of his own. Well just try some of the activities, even if they sound stupid they should help. And If your husband's depressed just spend more time with him, even if you already do, go get some ice cream or something it really helps with the relationship and he should feel less depressed. I hope your pregnancy goes well and that you two stay together. :)
