One of the very difficult parts of this disease is the isolation that comes with it. The people in our life are understandably frightened and confused by this disease. I live alone with this every day in a state of hyper vigilance, working, caring for my home and kids as best I can, and constantly striving to keep stress and demands off my husband so he stays calm.
I’m speechless if I have to explain how to deal with my husband. I dealt with all these symptoms. I been married for 13 years and I felt like you are telling my story. My husband tried to commit suicide more than 10 times or even more than I can remember the four majors ones. I knew he suffers lot he lost everything and I don’t want to give up on him because I’m terrified if he will kill him self one day. We are going through ECT treatment for his depression!!!!
@@btisamdunnam4834 I am very sorry for you and what you endured. The human body was not made for what we do to it. I was a soccer player in high school, college, and semi pro leagues after. I wish I did not head so many balls. I do not have explosive mood swings, but I have been somewhat depressed for months. My memory is definitely not as sharp as it used to be. I am in my 60s. I am curious what sports your husband played.
I raced bobsled for team usa for 9 years, now I’m watching my teammates from Olympic team commit suicide one by one. I’m also suffering and holding on the best I can. I use to be a youth correction counselor, the things I taught are now saving my life.
Unfortunately, it’s too late. My husband committed suicide last year. There is no help or assistance for mental patients. It’s a sad reality but we contacted every
I am a lone wolf, by choice. I rather not see old friends and make excuses not to meet up. I sit in my bedroom and have detached from life. My wife thinks it's all in my head, bingo Everyday I feel closer to fully losing it and everyday I become less social and shut down a bit more than the previous day. I smoke weed hourly and it's my only vice. It helps to a point but I now go from 0 to 100 a good 4 to 5 times a day. My poor decisions and judgment are complete foolishness and yet I remain steadfast. To my wife I am lazy and always angry. She has begun to hate me and it leads me to hate myself more. Truly a vicious cycle and I just continue to Circle the drain.
