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 ,

Ouch @Shaz51 is this the SIL you had to cancel on over Christmas?

Can you put a boundary in place re: getting carer payment to enable mum to come home?

That's a bit harsh @Shaz51

Do you and Mr Shaz usually get on with his sister?
