Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness
Sure you can ask, I am nearly 55years old Shazzabazza, and I learned I need to keep moving, otherwise I stiffen up.
Enjoy your lunch! It sounds you still have quite a bit of family around you, coming to see you for a coffee.
It must be a busy time for you, the chatter and catering, when all you want to do is rest.
In a way I am lucky, I can pick my time to Skype them as my family as they live overseas, (and daughter interstate)
Other days, I feel frustrated as I cannot help them or hug them when my mum's had another fall. (mum suffers from Parkinsons and dad is her carer.
I hope you do get some enjoyment out of their visits, they wouldn't visit you and your hubby if they didnt care?
How is hubby today?
Love,

Re: Ups and Downs of Husband`s Mental Illness
Hello @Former-Member, @Grasshopper3, @soul, @JoJo99, @Determined, @Anony18, @Former-Member, @Rose96, @Owlunar
My Husband has written this down for me to write hear about his thoughts
he wrote ; My thoughts lately is that life is a game of survival and I DON`t WANT TO PLAY ANYMORE !!!!!
After 57 years of life i would like to just sit it out , I DON`T WANT TO PLAY ANYMORE
exspecially when you see and hear how much harder it`s getting for everyone
