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

Very difficult, because she hates taken medication she hates going to doctors . It is really difficult especially for me I have to give her medication which exacerbates her diabetes. So effectively I am slowly killing her because I am the one given her meds as per doctors instructions and inside I know it is worsening her condition I feel sick inside myself doing it.

I wonder what is worse her taking the medication or getting off the meds and maybe suffer from mood swings from time to time. I dont understand it at all.

I would love to hear from others who live with and care for loved ones who suffer from Bi Polar!
