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 ,

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope need them at the moment
Things have improved. Still very low though and it worries me.
Somthing to be thankful for. She is at least talking to me about how she is feeling something that hasn't happened un the past.

Hey @Shaz51 @Determined - this is from the sane website:

Understand that the real connections in our lives run deep, deeper than external opinions and attitudes, and deeper than anyone outside our bond can ever comprehend. Trust these bonds are strong enough to enable you to give yourself time and space when you need it.

Hello @Former-Member, @Determined, @Faith-and-Hope, @Former-Member, @Appleblossom, @Rose96, @Owlunar

I am tired now as we usually mow the 4 lawns together as they are next to each other , but they all said to come back next week to mow

so we went and picked up mum`s rubbish and took it to the dump and then hubby trimmed all our bushes

Yes , I hope not @Former-Member, @Former-Member, I think it might be getting run down and I had the Flu needle last week too

Mr Shaz does things or changes things which I have been thinking he does on purpose , but I have not told anyone so it surprised me and i expected it

when We picked up mum`s rubbish , hubby did the ususal and Mum said " DOES HE DO THAT ON PURPOSE "

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Hi @Shaz51, not quite understanding what you mean by doing things on purpose, can you give an example? Darcy

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness

Mr Shaz changing his mind perhaps a little quirk he has created to feel more in charge of himself as opposed to medication. Whatever it is it would be about him nothing to do with you Shaz. He adores you xxx--- thank you @Former-Member

I am ok @Former-Member, @Former-Member, after his reaction yesterday , I said what`s up and he said that he is goes for days on half the meds and then last night he took the full meds

Hey @Shaz51
I am obviously missing something here...
The main thing is that you are OK.
Hoping you have been able to do a little something for yourself this week.
