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 I'm a bit late in replying. Hope things with Mr Shaz are ok? It is stressful time of year too. I wanted to let you know that your post -& reaching out here to the community, was helpful & inspiring to me. It can be soooo difficult to explain. 💜

We have had a crazy few weeks , seems like Mr shaz was sweating sooo much during the day , wanting the aircon on at night

He would start itching all over every night and he had a sore appear on his forehead

And he would take ages to sleep and then he would have fighting dreams in which he would kick me through the night which wS making him verrryyy upset

Anyway we made a appointment to see a specialist when we decided to up his antidepressants by ourselves and we can not believe it as everything stopped, WOW

That is weird @Shaz51 I have been getting itching all over phases and then if I scratch a sore might come.

It has been weird @Appleblossom , were trying to work out if he was allergic to something

And with his dreams, I would get kicked through the night which would wake me up

Hi @Shaz51 happy to read there’s been a positive change by adjusting medications. I hope the kicks during the night weren’t to severe. I deliberately give my hubby a gentle kick when he’s snoring hahaha. Happy to have a cool change today after some uncomfortable hot days and nice to see some rain falling on my garden. Hoping you both start sleeping better xx
