Notices

Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now.

Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year.

Hi Nicolette I dont think I resent him being in bed as I know he has issues and has trouble sleeping then has trouble getting out of bed. We have separate rooms as we couldnt sleep in the same bed because of his non sleeping and now since my op my sleeping is terrible as well?
I think the problem with me is that he has gone back to his old self what he was like before I became sick! When I got sick he was very good so he can do it but now as I am getting better I can see him going downhill again!

Be strong Jen!

I know it's hard watching them side but if you are still not 100%, you must look after your health too.
Lucky you have your own room now.

Take care & big hugs

That sounds frustrating. I hope things get better for you.

Hi Damiea thanks yeh we sell supplies to the signwriters in the area its a good little business and can be run by one person most of the time sometimes two people have to be here for the lifting. We bought the business thinking it would give hubby something to do and give him back some reason to get out of bed but the novelty seems to have worn of. I can handle it but I am recovering myself after major surgery recently. I know his Dads death has upset him and will affect him. But I am not a sufferer and I KNOW I have to get out of bed or we lose our business and our house

Welcome back Jen, I am glad the trip went well. I am certain your husband will need a few days to recover. Hopefully then he will be back to helping with the business. Do continue to take good care of yourself as much as you are able.
