Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

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 ,

That's a lot of issues for you to have to deal with @Shaz51

I think you're amazingly resolute & positive, despite having to follow up those health issues & concerns.

I'm glad that Mr Shaz is feeling better after a sleep @Shaz51

Daytime naps can do wonders, even with headaches.

I cannot nap at all during the day anymore, I never doze off.

So I do breathing meditations instead (lying down), & often feel much better after.

I just did one for 15 minutes, before I then had enough energy to check-in on the forums (now).

Good morning @Shaz51

Sounds like you had a big day yesterday, and Mr Shaz too.

It must be nice to hear the specialist is happy and you both have a manageable plan of attack. Does caffeine-free herbal tea count in the water intake? I have been known to enjoy a cup of hot water too!

I hope today is calm and smooth for you both. My day yesterday was a little emotional but positive.

Good morning @Former-Member, @Adge, @Determined, @Faith-and-Hope, @Former-Member
