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 ,

Hi @Shaz51 what a time-consuming drag to have to go to and from town yet again to sort a piece of equipment you need. Hope today is a smooth one for you :heart

@Shaz51 any other warning signs starting to creep in?

Would he be amenable for a pdoc review? Remember there is rural bulk billed telepsychiatry available if he doesn't want to see public team?

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

sounds like maybe some extra help is needed @Shaz51 could you contact his psychologist or other support and see if can speak with them?
you can always use the helplines too for some support for yourself.
