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 ,

Hi @Shaz51

im doing ok today - thanks so much for asking.

Hubby had a minor episode yesterday- but snapped out of it within 15 mins, which is a lot better than usual.

How are you doing?

🙂

@Shaz51

The hubby is cooking Silverside, Cauliflower bake and veggies- which will be nice as I’ve just got home from work.

I find it very difficult working full time and juggling the teenagers, to find any time for me. I’m thinking about finding an art class or something similar to attend 🙂
