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 ,

went to see mum at the hospital

went to the doctor -- put mr shaz on stronger anti imfammatoriers and osteo painkillers and more physio , see doctor again in two weeks

went to the chemist and waited 45 minutes for meds that I never got -- I walked out

Yikes @Shaz51 it has been non stop for you (with the exception of the 45 minute "rest" at the chemist - how frustrating to not even get the script filled).

Car troubles is all you need at this point in time - hope it was not too expensive to fix.

Hope you don't have any further hiccups over the next few days.

Huge day, @Shaz51.

And a few more big ones coming, I'm guessing. Take care.

Hi @Shaz51

You have so much happening right now - and this is your second mum talking - I hope you are taking care of yourself with so much disorder and organised chaos happening - wow - I know this is all a hard ask

And car troubles - you did not need this nor could you foresee such a thing - darn

And I don't know what sort of pain Mr Shaz has right now but the medication ordered seems a little odd - but extra physio would help - darn - having to wait so long at the pharmacy - I hope you got to sit down at the time

And amazing that with a death in the family so many people are staying in two houses - I hope they cook their own dinner - Shaz - you are doing so much right now I know you need an ""Out of Order Sticker" on your forehead - please take time for yourself

I'm sending my best wishes for your mother too and I hope you can convince her to stay in hospital for a bit longer so YOU can have a rest - so much happening at the same time - I don't think I could manage all of this

Sending hugs

Dec

Here's a card you can wear around your neck - I hope people don't give you are hard time
