I think its going to be important for you not to lose who you are in all of this. I wish I lived closer we could go out for a cup of coffee.
It's not an easy thing to deal with.
Hubby works night which, in the beginning, I wasn't crazy about. Now I look forward to him going to work! I don't look at that as a bad or hateful thing I look at it as my time to get my thoughts together. Living with a bi-polar isn't fun or easy...the mood swings are incredible! one minute he's fine the next biting my head off for not changing the toilet paper...stupid stuff irritates him...so I just block him out most of the time. He does turn everything around to make it seem that it is ME....not HIM....I've just learned to live with it and not pay much attention. I want him well, we used to have such fun together...doing EVERYTHING together..now we hardly ever see each other, one, he is working most of the time and when he isn't working he is either sleeping or watching tv. I feel very lonely sometimes...Thank GOD for my furgirls
I wished you lived closer too goofy...a cup of coffee and a shoulder would be nice to have at times.

Thank you for responding...it means alot to me to have such support from people that don't even know me

Hugs,
Brenda
