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 is so frustrating @Shaz51

Mr Darcy usually will not say anything until he is really bad (all or nothing). Mum going slow, but well for her age.

Yaaaaa I took at step forward today @Former-Member , @Faith-and-Hope , @Former-Member , @Smc , @Bunniekins , @Determined , @Owlunar , @outlander , @Appleblossom , @Adge , @PeppiPatty , @Jacques , @Janiee

I have been feeling like I should be able to do everthing

between our place and mum`s place and yards and everything else going on , I have arranged someone to do mum`s gardening from time to time -- ( I got mum`s approval first and she thought it was a good idea esp with mr shaz and my problems )-- I am feeling really bad writting this

when I told mr shaz about it -- you could actually see the load fall off his shoulders

it was hard @Former-Member , but we kept on saying we will do it

I have been trying to tell mr shaz it is ok to say no , I think we both need too

and with one of our customers mr shaz says his anxiety levels goes through the roof every tuesday when we are there

@Shaz51 Hi Shaz51 I think that is most sensible. What do they say 'Deligate of die'.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that @Shaz51 ... waiting for promised phone calls is soooo frustrating! I do not blame Mr Shaz one bit for being totally over it.

Waiting for the call .........
