Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Hello @PeppiPatty, over here my special friend xx

Hello Everyone

Love to hear from others on the forum if you experience this

My hubby has been diagnosed with lots of things and has had MI all his life

do you find things goes ok and i start to feel confident and wanting to go forward and then everytime something always happens to upset it -- sometimes I think is it a controlling thing ?? that he wants to be in control ??

Don`t know if I am making this up , but i have that feeling ,

Hi @Shaz51

I think I have mentioned before that I thought my ex-h might have been depressed but it was hard to see past the lazy and morose exterior to tell and I was just irritated with him a lot of the time so I don't know

But say on a Saturday - when I had been up since 6.00am and had been doing a lot of weekend stuff because I worked - I wouldn't have minded had he stayed out of my way for the whole day - but eventually he would get up and wander to the window and it might be raining - either all day or just started - and he nearly drove me crackers by saying mournfully

"It looks like it has set in for the whole day"

Ahhhhhhhhhhh - he had such hard luck - I wouldn't let him smoke in the house and he would stand in the car-port smoking and looking miserable

Enough said Shaz - but yeah - we all have the weather whatever the weather is - and we might be just as miserable but I remember that mournful tone and the misery of smoking in the carport

Yeah - enough said - I have been so much better off without that and I feel for you having that happening too - when you have your own health problems

Hugs - Dec

Hi @Owlunar

Mr shaz was listening to the radio and he said that`s me when it rains too much , but as for me , i can do nothing or find plenty to do around the house

this morning i had a sleepin -- amm 8am when mr shaz woke me up , so i don`t know how much longer i would have slept

it is raining here non stop yesterday and today , so we went food shopping for us and my mum

mum has not had the phone for a week , which is hard as i ring her everyday to see if she is ok , well today there was a cent sale on and she thought her and i could go and i went shopping didn`t i -- as she could not ring me up

oh well mr shaz and i had lunch after shopping , we shop in the next town which is 30kms away and a lot cheaper , home now, food away , second load of washing on , dishes are done , time for a cuppa and the computer
