Hello all,
Its been some time since I posted on the forum but I could use some insight. My husband and I have been treading on a fine line of divorce. He has strong narcissistic tendencies or may be a full blown one. He was a very selfish individual in our marriage and neglected my needs, just to paint the picture.
We had gone through a tremendously stressful period and he wanted a divorce and packed up to leave to his home state. We coexisted in our home for a week prior to his departure. He was going to school here in my state and put in a transfer, school was his priority in his life (keep this in mind for later). It was also being paid for by his service through military. He had also suffered through a back injury and a traumatic brain injury during his deployment within the last two years.
He constantly complained about his lower back for months leading up to our separation, having shooting pains, and migraines. He also complained about his right leg going numb during that last week he was with me. And was scared his back was so messed up he will end up paralyzed. Well the day he left came and gone and his family called me to ask if he had been acting strange during his time living with me. They said that he believes he is Jesus Christ, he is dancing in circles and is hearing voices.
Worried I tried contacting him for days to no avail. But finally get to chat with him on the phone after he decided to read my messages… he confirmed he is Jesus Christ, that the one day we were arguing while he was on the phone with his mom (i have no recollection of this but wont refute it) he said he felt a light come over him and he saw saint Bridget come out of him. That the light healed his back and migraines and no longer is in pain. He also claimed to talk to Pope Francis on the phone and “people of the church” have been watching over him. Hes also been hearing voices in his head.
Now at this at this point leads me to believe this man has schizophrenia developing. He also had quit school that was the center drive and focus of his life, and says he needs to now “go back to his humble beginnings and needs to live humbly” he says that light and the experience “enlightened him” and he said all his pain stemming from past trauma and abuse from childhood disappeared. He says things to me such as your mind creates your reality, and he believes he has a grand purpose in the world to figure out. He also said he sees visions, such as an incoming earthquake where everybody in the world will bow down. And claimed to see what is happening with Ukraine a year ago while was deployed.
We chatted again a few days later and he got angry at me that i didnt believe he was Jesus and he blocked me on social media. He then unblocked me and asked for my forgiveness saying I am his Mary of Magdala. This man is not catholic and i have no clue where he is getting some of this information. He was brought up christian but fell out of the faith some time ago and now is calling for me to repent.
His whole personality is different, and he is very concerned for the world, other people (except me of course lol), gave up school to fulfill this “divine destiny” and wants to now live without worldly possessions like money. He wants to live humbly.
I am not sure if he is suffering from a mental break, psychosis, developed schizophrenia, or had a kundalini awakening of some sort… any thoughts would be appreciated. He also refuses mental help.
Edit; he also was an avid MJ enjoyer… smoked just about every couple hours or so.
