DrRoberta Dear Dr. Roberta,
Should I tell my fiancé that I take medication? I’m afraid he’ll think I’m loony because they are psychiatric medicines. But, he might see my pills around the house, or someone in my family might mention that I was once sick. What should I do?

Dear Sane,
Secrets hurt a relationship. Please explain your situation to your fiancé. If the love of your life thinks you are loony for taking medicine, even though that medicine helps you stay sane, then he doesn’t deserve you. The only time to worry about you becoming loony is if you stop your medication.
