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 @Former-Member
How was your weekend. I was glad last week was over but this one is looking just as busy. Hubby had a medical appointment at 10 to 8 this evening took use longer to get there and back than the appointment itself 🤗 for very little input. On his way home he tore the top off his big toe part of the problem of not having any sensation below the waist... Though I don't think he has had much sense for many years. Any way got him to bed and cleaned up. What does your nweek hold? I'm feeling positive at the moment have got my meds back to a good level. I always promise myself I will get my scripts filled early and not run out seems to last a month then I get sidetracked again. Have a good week all take care.❤️

@Lesley. Get my new fangs this week, looking forward to this. I noticed that you got your own scripts filled, looking after our own medicals oh so important, something I have neglected. Teeth are the first stop for me, will be the GP next to get a good health check.

@Shaz51 how are you going?
Saw your post @PeppiPatty, how is Arlo?
@Sanatorium23 how are you going?

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

I shared this on a different thread earlier then thought it may be more relevant here...

This video clip was played in one of the sessions at the training day I was at today in the context of peer-peer support amongst university student's. I found it very relavent to my darling and I (more importantly me) though and thought others may appreciate it.

It's not about the nail

@Former-Member just tried it again myself, dont know why it wont work.
Try googling YouTube + its not about the nail.
I will see if I can fix the link on my laptop later. I did it on my tablet and that doesn't always cooperate, dont know why.
