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 ,

oooohhh @Shaz51

I am glad Mr Shaz is self soothing.

It is very hard once that cat (SI) is out of the bag. Cant just put it back in. So his personal expression makes it hard for you.

Some people say it casually and some people dont, many people dont. Either way. I feel for you and have been in that situation very often.

Find something self soothing for you too. Maybe separately.
