Re: trying again
thanks hobbit
sorry to say but carers australia are not in our area, as are no others, yes my partner could have fantastic support if he choices, at the moment no, but for the other side none, though mental health are great, i try and live with illness not delusional disorder as that is impossible, Iknow the in's and out's of DD, I put up the delusional disorder as i was probablly counting chickens if someone else is dealing with the same thing. do read a lot of the posts and get insight. someone else asked what DD is well if you ask me, basic way of putting it my partner lives in a live of make believe, he only believes what he sees, hears and twist everything in the world to what he believes and as of many mental illness does not believe he is sick and don't need help. Sorry think you got the wrong side of what i was saying about arafmi, i had a good supprot worker and she left, more value than the rearest diamond, but the person that is there at moment sits on the end of phone says nothing when asked for advice says she don't know, that is just about mental illness and how to work with the mental health team, nothing to do with DD. Will plod along like i have for the last five years, always good just to read that we are not the only ones out there, just feels like it at times
thanks heaps

Re: LOST
My wife has stpd. Schizotypal personality disorder. It comprises of strange behaviours, thinking weirdly, and delusions.
We have been separated for 4 months now. She isn't taking her meds still, and no longer feels as though she needs me. After living with her for 15yrs and taking care of our families needs. I now feel alone and discarded!

Re: LOST
Wow @GivingMick it seems like a really tough situation you are in. In my experience people with MI (especially those not under treatment or stable) can only focus on themselves and sometimes they don't even do that. Have you spent some time on yourself??? I know it's key to my survival with my husband. Whilst it isn't the only answer it's a start.
