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 ,

Yes they did @Former-Member and scripts for everything (even for items not needed).

Hopefully significant pain relief in 2 weeks, pharmacist said to review meds every 4 days and try and taper a bit.

Emailed case worker today, told her about meds, she said it will take a while for him to get back to an even keel.

How are you going today?

Darcy

@Shaz51

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

when Mr shaz is on full meds he sleeps all night snoring and very tired in the mornings @Former-Member

but he is cutting back on his meds again so this will decrease as the weeks goes on , so one day at a time

I remembering you writting ages ago about the unsure feelings carers get , you don`t know if it will be bad as before or will it be worse
