Have we turned a corner?
Have we turned a corner? I almost don’t want to post this and tempt fate but I think we have turned a massive corner. As I type my other half is at the Docs again, success no.1. We also managed a calm and serious talk about his behaviour and he has promised to a) get help therefore docs and b) make more effort to get a job and keep me informed so I don’t have to ask him (which comes across as nagging apparently!).
He has at last admitted that he is worried about returning to work and I suggested part time in a job he is comfortable in and getting support from the GP with this, maybe counciling.
He was shocked to see our financial state on paper even though I had told him several times and he applied for 4 jobs today. I can’t ask him to do more. I have told him if he doesn’t keep up this momentum re jobs and getting support I will ‘nag’ until he is sorted.
So for the time being I am giving him a last chance and staying put for now, It’s been a sad wk for me. I feel emotionally and phyically drained, but I know it would have been a lot worse without all your support so thankyou and I will keep intouch.
Good luck to all of you out there in a similar position. It shouldn’t happen, but it does and we have to deal with it, together.
Love Irene
