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 ,

I don't know @Shaz51 would imagine that it would depend on how hot it is and how busy you have been. However, if you find you are constantly thirsty, you need to tell doc.

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

In that case @Shaz51 increased thirst definitely should be mentioned to GP.

Mr Darcy had a good day today, hoping he has turned the corner (it's either that or the pain killers are inducing hypomania ...) Last night he woke in pain but is no longer crying about the reason for the need for surgery and he enjoyed himself going out tonight.

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

I am glad to hear it @Former-Member ..... ❣️ That must be a relief.

WH seems to be indicating p-a that he is aware of my use of the forums .... and was delivering a thinly veiled ultimatum in front of the counsellor .... think that is just feeding into the truth of our situation actually. Demonstrating his controlling and manipulative behaviours.
