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 ,

Hopefully he will say something before it gets too bad @Shaz51. The twin was inclined to leave things until they were really bad but is getting a bit better at saying things now.

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Makes us feel so discouraged when we make an effort to ensure their needs are met @Shaz51. I need to do some walking, am so unfit but am scared of failing.

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

I'm very sorry to hear that @Shaz51

What you needed to hear him say was "You go girl", "I'm with you in that", "I'll come too" (for company).

Or something like that (motivational)...
