After Learning Some Wrong Doing Of My Husband, I Felt

After learning some wrong doing of my husband, i felt very cheated. Temperamentally very irritable more so when many evidences are before me he is still lying. A lawyer friend suggested to visit a Psychologist( a counselor) so that they will assess the situation better. Psychologist suggested Risperdal for 15 days. I was quite reluctant to take the medicine. Still he suggested to take 1/2 a tablet for 15 days & then the review. after lot of thought I took it for 8 days. One friend very strongly advised to stop the medicine no need to take etc.(she is a wife of Cancer specialist so she is little bit aware about whether such medicines should be taken or not). Which I stopped. I visited to the doctor again. He spoke to my husband for 15 minutes alone probably asking for my behavioral pattern & prescribed Daxid with Risperdal at least for 6 month. Review to be done in 20 days. I have not yet started the medication. I am not feeling comfortable in taking medicine. He has also suggested Psychometric test, probably for both. On the contrary I felt my husband needs treatment that after doing so much wrong in his life lying,cheating,not earning,not taking responsibility etc, appearing to be quite calm. On face value he appears a gentle kind of person. It was difficult to stay with him after knowing that he has been so wrong in 18-20 years. Currently he is living in very average like area in an apartment, there is hardly any income, there is no office of his own, operating in a corridor of a mall(earlier he had office of a friend in the same bldg which has been leased out now) not much business happening. Pls advice on both the thing 1) I am reluctant to take medication I believe that through prayers & meditation I will get over it soon. 2) whether he needs treatment.
