Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Nothing mentioned yet @Former-Member .... but he had two daytime sleeps today .... and no reducing his exercise program.

🙁

Today has actually been ok so far @Former-Member, evenings are the worst though. I always dread how each evening is going to unfold.

Had a very positive meeting with S1's teachers today so that has been a nice boost for us both. Teachers were very positive about his progress and integration to his new class.

Hello @Carlachris :, @Determined, @Faith-and-Hope, @Former-Member, @soul, @Former-Member, @Former-Member heart:

well today we were watching a show we taped "insight "--and one lady said she felt like she did not want to leave the hospital, my husband said he feels like he wishes he can go into hospital for a week at a time too , to get away from everything

Hello @Former-Member, that`s when I said but you hates hospitals , mr shaz said I know

I would love to just hide away at home everyday would be great -- There you go -- the is it -- @Former-Member , what do you do ??

Really hope things work out for you in that regard @Former-Member I don't understand why evenings are so unstable...

My darling really should have and could have spent a week in hospital @Shaz51 but absolutely refused.

My main concern at the moment is how things will unfold when I am back at uni and not on call for constant support. Going to be a bumpy transition I fear.

Getting some great support from a friend spending time with her 2 day a week, 1 just for social and 1 doing activities. My mum will also fill some gaps where necessary.

Sounds like you are doing everything that you can @Shaz51....I guess I might only add, be gentle on yourself right now! If you need to rest and hide away a bit at the moment, maybe its OK to do that...
