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 ,

@Shaz51 I have found the best way for me not to overeat is to keep the pantry free of temptation. It is still a struggle for me.

Thinking of @Former-Member too.

Hi all

@Former-Member agree about keeping the pantry temptation free. Work in progress with my darling. Making some improvements though 😊

Thinking of especially @Former-Member and anyone else near fire zones.

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

hello @Former-Member how are you xx

and Ihope mr @Former-Member is feeling a bit better

this week was a bit quieter than last week which is good

mr shaz would not have coped with another busy week like last week

and today he voiced about what he like to do with my my mum`s yard and house when the time comes

and he is already thinking of putting in a big shed there now

@Shaz51

Having a not so busy week = 😀

How do you feel about Mr Shaz's plans?

Going OK here.

Mr Darcy starting to get on edge about jobs where materials have been ordered and in some cases delivered, but waiting on tradies/ handyman to install them.

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

a lot of mixed feelings @Former-Member

this is to answer your message too @Owlunar

happy with building a shed in mum`s yard

but to dig out all the gardens and turn it back to lawn

i won`t say what he has plans for both houses -- arrggg

I own my dad`s house and I own half of mum`s house at the moment

and yesterdy he went on about what we are going to do to both houses

and then he wants to upgrade his ute
