Background - I founded a business a few years ago. DP joined last year.
Me: Work related mental breakdown. Everyone agrees time away is what's needed to recover. I am now 'off'.
Also me: Back injury reoccurring leaving me either limited in movement or housebound, unable to drive or really do anything.
Him, who has access to 3 offices and a car: "I'm now going to work from home every single day. At least half of it if not all of it 7 days a week. I'm also going to ask you about work and talk about work. Im going to be working on the sofa next to you and I'm going to take all my work related stress out on you even if I don't say it's about work. I expect you to look after the house, meals, cats etc'
Me: I need physical and mental space away from work though to recover.
Him: I'm doing all the work though because you can't.
Me: Sob.
Am I being massively unreasonable? Should I just be grateful and suck it up? I need my time and space to get better.
I feel I should add DP hasn't decided to WFH all the time because he wants to check on me or look after me. It's so he can get some space......
Am I an entitled brat to want at least a couple of days a week where work isn't in my face at home?
