A suffering Partner.

[billy7944]

I am the creator of SMUGS, i would like to share something very personnel with all users.
I have been to receive sad news from my partner that if i dont sort out my medical problems, she will live me and take away my children.

This is to protect them as they are starting to mimic me and my illiness. I feel i am very sad with this news, but it has been an amazing kick in my pants at the time i was suffering most. I am now more afraid to feel losing my children than i am to be ill. In one day i have had an amazing turn around in my life and feelings.

For the first time in a long time, i have been able to cry and to express emotion. It has been such a reliveing experience but i never want to go through it again.

I do hope that members of smugs can share their thoughts with me.

Regards
Andy

Keep your chin up my friend  always here if you want to talk more, partners often dont always truely understand as hard as they try, but we as the sufferer also try to protect them from the dark days so when the cloud swallows us for a while its hard for them to break through and rescue us, they have to sit and wait and worry, which of course we dont choose for them,but depression can be overwhelming and unless you to have experienced its power how can we possibly look to others to understand the gravity of the feelings trapped deep within. All we can do is carry on trying to beat this crippling illness and hope that they will be patient for us. You are strong your family need you, SMUGS need you and i need you so callif you need a friend.
take care
talk soon
