Oh you poor thing! I'm from the US so it's hard for me to understand what your going through, but it sounds like an awful situation. I can't imagine having someone tell me where I can and can't go, especially inlaws! I suggest you take a stand and start sticking up for yourself and the rights you ought to have. You are your own person, with your own mind. Your husband sounds very supportive. As Dinah metioned, it is pretty common here for the child of the inlaw to deal with them. You shouldn't have to put up with rude comments from your mom-in-law (or anyone for that matter). Try having a serious talk with your husband about whats going on. Encourage him to get the two of you moved into your own house, whether his parents approve or not. If they love their son and want him and the woman he loves to be happy, then they will get over it and accept it. I think you should go ahead and see the doctor. Your problems aren't silly, don't let anyone tell you they are. God bless you and please let me know how things are going.
