Hi @Missy112

Welcome to the forums!

You have come to the right place if you want to talk to other people about your up and down times. I am sure there are plenty of people here who have experienced the same feelings that you may have caring for your husband and who are willing to chat!!!

Hope to hear from you again.

Hi @Missy112

 

Welcome!

Have you been finding the Forums useful so far?

Sometimes it's helpful to start a new discussion in 'Our Experiences' or 'Something's not right' if you want some feedback or advice on your current situation.

If you have any tips or experience in looking after yourself and self care, discussions on this are always encouraged. You can post about that in 'Looking after ourselves'

Hope you continue to post.

His nerves just eat him up 😞

Re: New to forum hi

Question. How do I reply to a post? Like I see the first post the main one with a LIKE or Reply. But everyone who has has a say on the main post under it has a like and a reply on theirs ...... So when just putting my opinion in on the main post which one to I click on? The reply on first post or any reply on any if the spits commenting after ? Lol that make sense

Re: New to forum hi

@Missy112 I am a newbie too - just want to encourage you that the "on and off meds" has been fairly typical of what I have observed with my son over 18 years. It's taken me all this time to find people walking a similar journey. Hope you find it comforting being here.

Re: New to forum hi

Thanks, but I'm not really in here anymore I found a Facebook group better. I needed information and help with medication but your not allowed to talk about that here. Thank goodness fab group people, helped and I found out slow release might be ten way to help my hubby. Good luck in here anyway
