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 ,

Oh no @Shaz51

When I was the Gardener on the golf course - the hedge trimmer bit me too...

It went right through my trousers, & into my leg.

You know your body well and have had a lot of experience with infections @Shaz51. Might pay to go with any gut feelings re: GP/ED.

Hi @Shaz51

Yes - poor Mum - getting lots of attention and Mr Shaz is having a BiPolar meltdown and doing stuff in the gardening department I gather - I hope this relieves his anxiety a bit - this has to be the tug-of-war going on - I hear you

Egad!!!A few days have past since you wrote about your kidney having pain - I hope you did see your doctor about this - as your second Mum I feel as if I am repeating myself but I am doing my best to be supportive

My other daughter is mostly a hands-off situation - her husband is having an angiogram tomorrow - I will be in touch today to see how things are going.

Thinking of you though - I have trouble keeping out of her life at times - maybe you are getting my concern - aw - that is so confusing

Dec - mmmm - sending best thoughts
