Avatar m tn I managed to taper myself off the pain meds and having living a reasonably healthy lifestyle. I'm not judgmental in any way of what people are dealing with because I understand how hard it is to change a routine or pattern. My wife happens to like beer...really like it. I don't mind her drinking beer at all and sometimes I'll even purchase the exotic beers for her so she could enjoy something else.
Avatar f tn m the only person with a spouse with addiction issues but the deep down thoughts.. Like is it me? Is it something I did? Or why does he lie to me? Like its always my fault.. I have lost sight of myself & my needs due to his addiction.. Like I had said my life is a roller coaster and some days are great some days are bad. It just depends on if he is using or not? When they are good I feel like we just sweep the problem under the rug & if I bring anything up its a fight.
Avatar f tn I have written before, bad night last night. Can anybody tell me how to deal with spouse. He is in a hypermanic state and he is so aggitated, mostly at me. I try to be suportive, but if I mention he's acting hyper or say slow down, or relax or anything, he get really angry and start to really scream at me. Jumps out of his seat and screams "don't gell me how I feel." So, can somebody tell me how to act. Do I say nothing? His dr.

Avatar f tn Just like falling in love takes time so does dealing with a passing of a loved one.Just opposite ways of feeling.Love and loss,two parts of life that both hurt.For loving anyone or anything,such as a pet can lead to pain.All feelings lead to pain and despair,eventually.So do we stop feeling,stop loving,stop caring,no we just learn to adjust to our new lives without that loved one that pet,that friend.whom ever.Death ends a life,not a relationship.

Finding others who are or have dealt with similar situations might be a great source of support for you, and you count too! Take good care honey and I will keep you and your husband in my thoughts.
Avatar f tn JJ - thank you for the comfort. I have tried to not allow him to use his MS as an excuse. I do think he is just trying to soften the blow. It's very difficult to cope with the loss of someone I have been best friends with since I was 14 years old. It's almost like grieving a death. I keep hearing that it will take time - I just hope I'm strong enough to get through it.
Avatar m tn You may have to get on meds for a while to be able to function with the amount of grief that you are dealing with. My mom and I are here if you need or want to talk. Try to take care of yourself and your child and get help because no one should have to go through this alone. Again I am so sorry that this happened.

Avatar f tn My 52 year old husband of 25 years has always had addiction problems - alcohol, marijuana, and crystal meth. Over the years he has stopped using meth and alcohol on and off. He drinks several times a week, and becomes drunk about once a week. But the meth is the worst. He uses it once a month, sometimes every other week, sometimes not for six months. But he is always going back to it, always lying about it, and always refusing to get help.
Avatar n tn Communications with deceased family members or friends take many forms including seeing them, hearing their voice, feeling them touch you, smelling their cologne, perfume or a favorite flower, sensing their presence or experiencing signs such as electronics turning off and on spontaneously, finding coins in unexpected places with the year of their birth or death, and seeing the deceased in vivid dreams.
1356959 tn?1488975948 Shut off our phones and mourned our babies death. We went to this nice winery with a beautiful river that ran by it and at sunset picked a flower for every week of our babies life with us in my belly and sent them down the river with thoughts and prayers of that journey. I don't know if it will help you but it at least gave me some closure. It's such a hard thing to go threw. I understand.
398059 tn?1447945633 those thought cross all of our minds...my husband has been amazing but we have only been dealing with this for a few weeks, and I still havent been dx. But the thoughts for me are there already...we have no insurance, my husband is a young contractor who just started his company a couple of years ago. He is already planninng to put his company on hold and work for a bigger company that has insurance...but then you have pre existing conditions, who knows if they cover that....
