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 ,

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

@outlander, mainly hang around in this thread. Shaz and Determined both know what it is like to have a suicidal spouse and others who contribute have different situations but similar issues and understand the way MI affects relationships. I too can relate in some small way the fears and difficulties that they have and can hopefully be an encouragement to them.
