Re: Supporting a partner in a crisis
Hi my dear friends @Former-Member and @Shaz51, I am struggling with the heat, it is currently 12:36am and it is 39 degrees, no sleep for me tonight. I have not had many low temperature days since Christmas, nothing below 35 anyway.
I hope you are both staying cooler than I am

Re: Supporting a partner in a crisis
Sorry @Former-Member I missed one of your messages, yes I think I do have bipolar disorder. Though I have only formally been diagnosed with severe depression and severe generalised anxiety disorder. I have never seeked any help for it in the past 30 years, I know that is a mistake. No one realised how bad it was.
I saw a psychologist for 2 sessions and a psychiatrist who said I was "faking" the symptoms to get the dole.
Who in there right mind would isolate for 20 years and have no income for 7 years to get the dole?

Re: Supporting a partner in a crisis
hi my dear friend @Shaz51 sorry i only popped in with one message on friday, it was a busy night, supporting my partner and having to do some housework.
im not so great, i have cracked one of my wisdom teeth in half from anxiety and it is aching so badly, i think it will need to be taken out, i am booked into the dentist on tuesday, im feeling really flat lately, i guess just bored with life at the moment as i don't do much.
i hope things are improving for you and managing your mum and family is not too difficult, you are a wonderful daughter, so many children leave there parents care and only show up when there is a will to get money out of. your mum is so so lucky to have you. and i am so so proud to call you my friend.
hugs @Shaz51 i hope mr shaz's shoulder is improving
Jacques

Re: Supporting a partner in a crisis
thank you @Shaz51 yes, im taking some neurofin it is helping a little, the headaches are bad though.
i hope the physio helps too, im so glad he is trying to look after his mental health, if he is not coping, im so so proud of him. i hope he gets a good psychologist to help him.
