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 ,

@Shaz51 hoping you and Mr Shaz feeling a bit better. Thinking Mr Darcy is coming down with something too, he is booked into GP Friday for a regular check.

We have some wood that needs cutting and I asked a young friend if he could help as it is probably a two person job - some of the logs are quite large and Mr Darcy is not so nimble post trauma. Think Mr D is keen to do the job himself as he might think that I don't think that he can do it. He is inclined to go hammer and tongs and I can see him overdoing things, I guess all I can do is encourage him to do just a little at a time.

Hello @Former-Member, @Determined, @outlander, @Owlunar, @Grasshopper3, @Faith-and-Hope, @JoJo99, @Rose96,

Hello @Former-Member, hope mr @Former-Member is ok and how are you

we had the day off yesterday , we found someone we know is leaving and mr Shaz is taking it hard for some reason and then someone texted us to mow the lawn , when we got there , it was mowed by someone else which has put mr shaz over the edge as he said last night

so he took his other meds last night , and slept all night

@Shaz51

Some people are so rude and do not make proper arrangements, It can be annoying in regular circumstances but the MI bonus gives it an added dimension.

@Maryjune

Realised we have not heard from you for a while, how are you going?
