Excuse me, Stop with the word hospitalization and use the appropriate word (COMMITMENT). I understand Faith is not acting in a way you approve of or in a manner constant with her past; however, this is in no way reason for commitment! You also can not commit her. I have not heard that she is a danger to herself or to society!! These are the only reasons for commitment. While I encourage her to seek treatment from her neuro; I in no way encourage her to commit herself!
It seems Faith is in a flair and has lesions which control her mood... This is not uncommon. We all know this or we should. It will end when the flair ends. Should I and others be committed because we scream, yell, toss dishes... due to mood changes while in a flair. NO!! Should I be committed because I want or have sex with the man down the street while in a flair -- NO!
I understand Faith's behavior hurts your feelings, but your feelings are not what I am concerned with. I'm concerned with Faith and the poor support she is getting from her husband.
If I were a husband in such a situation; I would make arrangements with family members to stay close and give all possible support to my wife.
Your current behavior may well be why Faith is still in a flair. Stress can put one in a flair and will keep one in it. Faith needs all family understanding and support possible, and all roids... to help pull her out of this.

its hard enough to have a life altering disease, without spousal issues on top of it. It sounds like your plate is full beyond measure, and I would demand a break for myself. You cant work on your marriage, or your partner till you work on yourself. Please, find the time, the love, the respect, and the space needed to work on just you. You are important enough, good enough, and worthy enough to be worked on first. Once you get yourself into a stable space, only then can and should you work on marriage or spouses or children. Make sure while you are working on you, he is working on himself. its harder to knock down a house with a strong foundation. its hard enough to have a life altering disease, without spousal issues on top of it.

I could not agree more - Faith - Much Love & Understanding - I've been there
