bit of background ..
My dh has had mh problems for nearly 3 years. 4 dcs. married for 20 years.
Manifested as mood swings, selfishness, severe short term memory loss.
He has lived with his sister, my sil, for a year, he left us, couldn't cope with family life.
He rarely contacts the children, they only see him if I take them to him ( round trip 7 hours)
He often said in regards to our life together " if I died tomorrow I would have no regrets" ad that I was his "soul mate". He was really hands on with the kids, a prefect dad.
NOW , our marriage was crap, I always made him feel stupid, things I said ( in passing) are now HUUUUUGE problems, our whole marriage was based on lies etc etc
His sil is lying to him, some I know about , some is just "obvious"
She has said "I will do everything I can to make sure he NEVER comes home"
She does NOTHING to make sure (give his very poor memory) that he keeps in touch with the kids.
It is like hes in a cult, "he" has totally changed, he believes EVERYTHING his sister tells him.
sooooo, if you were in this ( mad) situation what would you do ???
how long would you "wait" for him ??
( there is every chance he will get better in time)
ps please only say mem*ory as mn is being watched by someone irl who knows my story. i've name changed a while ago.
