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 ,

Aw @Shaz51

That's not good - you Mum is very vulnerable now and I am glad they kept her in hospital overnight - for her own sake she needs observation - poor sweet old lady - she is getting past it and perhaps we will all get there one day unless the inevitable gets us first

She might want to do things for herself but she has just had a hip replacement - and that's a big deal - perhaps with all this transitional care she will see another way rather than doing too much herself then wanting you to do it

I do understand - my mother went through this with her mother - it was a really tough time and my sort of collapsed when Gran finally went into a nursing home - we do have to consider more than just one person's desires here

I really care - this is me being protective again - and being in an older age bracket myself I understand your Mum too

Love from your second Mum
