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 ,

I know I feel better if I get something done before putting my feet up @Shaz51

Feel for you @Shaz51 do you feel like you are between a rock and a hard place? Tough for you with Mum in hospital too.

If it was up to Mr D I doubt he would be on DSP, he did get forms once but did not follow up. I ended up getting most of the palerwork sorted when Mr D was in hospital so had help from the c'link officer that visited MH ward on a regular basis. I really don't think he could have done it on his own at the time.
