DH has completely changed

My DH has completely altered his worldview/ opinion over the last few years. It was gradual, and only now am I coming to realise the full extent of it. We've been together for 15 years.

He believes in the great reset, believes there will be a nuclear war, covid is a hoax and the vaccines are killing people. He's stockpiled around £3k worth of food/ camping equipment/ knives. Our spare room is full of this stuff. He's also invested thousands into cryptocurrency.

He believes that inflation is all part of the "plan" and all the world leaders are "in on it" together.

I can't take it anymore. He disrespects my opinion by continuing to talk about it daily, even when I've expressed that I do not share the same opinion and don't want to argue about it. He tells me that "I will see when the time comes."

Every time there's news of a celebrity death/ unexplained death of a young person, he blames the covid vaccine. He threatened to leave me if I got it, although changed his mind when I made clear how serious I was.

Aibu to feel at the end of my tether? It's so draining.

Haven't bothered replying on here as no point but tide is turning on all this. Will be one of the biggest scandels to date but like many other ones when everyone claims to have seen it in retrospect but only a few were actually awake.

Politicos doing what always do and throwing everyone under the bus to save their skins aided and abetted by the useful idiots.

Classic - I know something Very Important that you don't know, and I can't tell you directly for reasons, but I will drop vague hints.

My five year old is a big fan of this tactic Grin

Come on @loginsaredicks - don't you want to inform the sleeping citizens like us? We can help?

I would like to be an informed citizen please, give up the goods :)

If you only did your own research. and scratched the surface. and got over your old-school prejudices against videos as a medium of communication against written papers of supposed research then you might not need to rely on vague hints. No, it's not that a poster secretly doesn't believe that what they allude to won't stand up to any scrutiny and debate and somewhere deep down they know its belief, it's just that ....

If you genuinely, wholeheartedly believed that you knew the truth, you'd share it with us instead of sharing vague and cryptic clues like fortune tellers who hedge their bets with generic as possible guesses.

It's a bit embarrassing that you claim to be 'awake' but don't share what you believe you're awakened to, including literally any sources or data.

My dad is exactly the same. It feels like losing someone to a cult. I'm sorry OP

He isn't going to change so if you're unhappy, leave.

Easier said then done but you sound drained. I personally couldn't be with someone like this.

Sounds like he recently has changed though no?

Me and my OH are never likely to encounter such a situation I imagine but I have friends who over the last couple of years have suffered from mental health issues and fallen down some of similar holes. However when some resumed normal service they saw what they'd been getting into.

If it's a really big change of direction I'd look at it like that, personally

Maybe you could inform yourself how to spell scandal properly.
