My husband and I are separated at present but I still try to support him whenever I can and still see him occasionally.....usually when he's lucid. He's been sectionned a few times now and they mess around with his medication to try to stabilise him but I guess not found the best dose. I'm his nearest relative in terms of the sections and am happy to remain so.
They initially said it was schizophrenia, then personality disorder and now seems to be some sort of psychosis.
I thought I was doing ok. We have 4 kids and I'm stupidly pg with #5. I havent told him yet as didnt want to rock his boat and he's going through another bad patch.
I feel like I'm in limbo land....i want him to get better so we can get back together and be the family we are supposed to be but this has been going on for 3 years although we've only been separated for half of that. But part of me just wants to divorce him - but this doesnt sit right with me either. I've tried to protect my children and they seem to be ok but not sure how I'm going to explain th new baby. Or how I'm going to cope.
Not sure what I'm posting for........
