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 ,

My family have always been emotional and negative @Shaz51 so understand your frustration, I am thankful for my darling teaching me some social skills or I might be the same... scary thought...

2) about my mum , I said that we will have to help both ours mums who are both in their 80`s more as time goes on , but it is hard when because our mums are very independant and don`t want us to fuss around

Hanging on here @Shaz51

Feeling better that content for group presentation next Monday is complete, got abiut 5- 10 hours work to tidy up my part of the script and presentation now. Got 3 more bug assesments in the next 4 weeks, 2 I havent even looked at 😲 1 is group so nit too bad.

Mum and Sister seem to be ignoring me after I made them cry on the weekend. Not feeling great about that.

Most exciting news is that after a good amount of rain my darling can breathe easy about our water supply 😆

Really hoping things ease for you and Mr Shaz. Nothing worse than feeling bad for wantig to help our mums. Been there and hated being made to choose (by both sides). Hugs to you and wishing you all the strength to keep on keeping on.
