Malaysian woman writes of husband’s love, support in struggle with depression and anxiety
Monday, 23 Dec 2019 02:35 PM MYTZuraila says her husband has faithfully stood by her since they tied the knot in 2014. — Picture from Facebook/zuraila.mohdnoor.1
They were both initially unaware that she was battling mental illnesses when they first met at university. “I have OCD so I’m a clean freak, and whenever my husband couldn’t follow my rules I would get angry, sulk, or have a breakdown. The tipping point came when Zuraila’s doctor asked her if she had ever lashed out physically at her husband.
“My husband looks after me like he’s looking after his own life. He told me that this is a trial that we will both go through and I don’t have to experience it alone.”
