Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

i usually go quiet toooo @Appleblossom , @Owlunar

but not today xx

tears are gone , very tired and numb now xx and hedachy

i am off the bed , sending you hugs and hope you have a good sleep tonight

Everyone is different - which is a good thing

@Shaz51 @Appleblossom

I would be trying to get my then-h to help me with a child who needed medical treatment - or whatever it was that was necessary - and I would yell at him

Which I see now was a waste of energy

With my mother though - I would close down - if she had a point - whatever she thought - she did feel righteous about it and arguing - I gave up with her

I hope you feel better in the morning Shaz - I hope you get a good night's sleep

I spoke to my ex h today. The one who had ups and downs of his own, but mnages to buy his way out of a lot these days. As my son was moving his gear. FIrst night at home alone since the last time he moved out, but this time he is doing it properly and with some good will. There will be better boundaries for all from now on.

Sorry to hear you had such a difficult day yesterday @Shaz51 I really hope that today is better for you. You carry so much on you shoulders supporting others. You don't have to be the strong one all the time when you are here. We are here for you. Take care darling, I'm thinking of you and sending big hugs xx

Hi @Shaz51 how are things today?

Hi @Shaz51 ... I too am wondering how you are today, and also Mr Shaz.

Today we worked our 6 hours cleaning on a tuesdays

tried ringing the mum`s doctor today but missed out -- going to try asking her doctor to fill out the form for me to be her carer

fingers crossed for tomorrow xx

had my hair done this afternoon

texted mr shaz to pick me up and BOY he tried his hardest to make me feel guilty for some self care while he did things at home

ahhh haaaa it did not work

cooked dinner and mr shaz is all ok tonight xxx

Hi @Shaz51 So pleased to hear that you have decided to apply again to be your mums official carer. With your Drs support, and knowing how much you do to care for her, it should be a given. Big tick too for that small but much needed timeout for self care. Good to hear Mr Shaz is doing much better now too. 👍💕

thank you my @Former-Member

fingers crossed my friend still as our mower is in the repair shop now

soo no mowing jobs yet

and fingers crossed that i don`t get the NO again to the carers form

yes it was soo nice to get my hair done

but did not need the guilt trip but he did not win

hoping you are ok xoxoxo

cleaning mum`s place tomorrow and then to see her doctor
