    your not alone em, everyone here understands and is very supportive, been bit quiet in here today, but some days its like that. my family not very supportive either, my dad shouted at me, when i rang him from the hospital last week after taking overdose, made me more convinced i didnt want to live.
    enjoy life, we only get one chance at it:)

    he had a read through some fact sheets giving to me and i said do you understand now how hard it is for me living with it. HIs response: what about how hard it is for me putting up with it all

    AAAAAGH! I've been on both sides of the depression divide and I can say that when your OH has a MH issue, it's tough, that's for sure. Very tough. But it's ten times worse to suffer from the darn thing.

    hi confused and welcome to the thread, we're a lovely bunch in here

    emweaver, my ex was like that, calling me names and putting me down all time, made me feel worse, best thing i did was get rid of him, obviously i'm not telling you to do same, my ex was a control freak too, wasnt allowed out without his permission etc.
    i definatly agree with amber, living with the condition is much worse, than living with somebody who suffers from it.
    big hugs

  • You're not going mad. Your husband, dear girl, is a d**k.


    I've got my back covered in sticky tape as I'm having allergy tests, so I can't shower for four days :eek: Good old strip wash I think in the meantime, otherwise nobody will sit next to me on the bus. Although that might be a good thing :D
