Three years ago doc thought that I should bring in hubby. I resisted but changed my mind.

-He came and the session was helpful.
-Then a year later he and I had another session with her.
-Last year we did not go.
-Maybe we need to meet again with her -- but I have not seen her in months and am putting off dealing with her.


I have to get up early tomorrow.
I'm stressing.

cooking fish
 
Tonight he woke up from a "nap" a little after midnight and wanted me to help him cook up four pounds of fish that he bought on Monday.

He was mean and nasty. It took him until about 3:00 am to calm down from some stressors at work.
Maybe I'm thinking he is the whole problem.
Maybe the other stuff that is bothering me is incidental.

i am sending you a ton of hugs......also pam spray with olive oil might work...i think i would gag at the smell of fish during the regular day time...in the middle of the night i think i would start vomitting....the other day you posted problems he presented and then you erased the post....you are a saint.....even if you weren't bipolar and didn't have a stroke and didn't have those parents you would be giving Job a run for his money.....no I don't mean to make light of it but somebody is in need of serious help but I am afraid he might be too well defended to see what he is doing to you. I used to think a bigger apartment would be the answer but now i think maybe he needs a behavioral therapist...and I don't like behavioral therapists....
more hugs

overslept
 
Hi,
I had the alarm set and I missed the alarm somehow!!


Last night / this morning hubby agreed to go see the tdoc with me.
I'm thinking that she will find it more useful if I see her first by myself and then see her with the two of us in a second visit.
I guess I need to call her.



Bobby,
Thanks for reading that post the other day. I don't know why I removed it.

please be careful, I am sorry the alarm clock gods were not with you this morning.... you did not need the added stress.
4 pounds of fish is alot of fish!!!!:eek:
Being married takes alot of effort.
Getting married is easy, staying married is hard.
I hope you can see your tdoc soon and then can work with her and your hubby .
((((HUGS))))

I think being married is the biggest stressor I've ever known.

I am not sure I'll ever want to know a bigger stressor.

Hi,

I've got no idea what is going on.


I do have a regularly scheduled appt. with pdoc tomorrow / Thursday.
I might try being honest with him about anxiety, depression, and sleep issues. Might.

Honesty!
 
Mari,
If you read this before your appt I just wanted you to know I think you should be honest with your doc! That is just my opinion and you will do what works for you!

Trust is a risk, you may be afraid of medication changes....It is ok that you are not well. That is what happens to us we have up and down periods this i a down period and hopefully you can express yourself.
Maybe the pdoc can help you.
((((HUGS)))
