Chronic illness and Relationships

[Dizzywizz]

…I know it is hard for my husband but it just cut deep. Watching race across the world and I mentioned - I’d love an adventure! However his response is …but you’d just moan about the pain all the time 😭 which is true but I feel like that is his real feelings coming out. Sorry wanted to write it somewhere 😂

ouch that must have hurt. But if it is also the truth, perhaps it’s time to have a check-in with each other on how you’re both feeling and coping? You’re both human and allowed to be hurt / disappointed on occasion.

Thanks @SpringCalling you are right… trouble is we don’t really talk 😂

Why do you think that he feels like that and why don’t you talk?
how does life look for you both? Do you both work? Have equal contributions to family life?

We do both work, he’s very full time with his own business and I’m 30hours. The pain has been terrible recently, the dr is trying new meds so hopefully will help. I have ms and currently using 2 sticks, I said yesterday I think o need a wheelchair for out and about and he said he wouldn’t give in like that!!!!
