I am struggling to show any interest in my husband because his illness is now really irritating me. It’s been there for 20+ years and I am frankly fed up of the impact it has on our lives. It’s like bits of our relationship are lost every week. I am now suffering with full time grief. Grief of losing my mum in December but losing elements of my marriage year after year. I can’t leave him because it seems totally wrong to do that. I am also a committed Catholic and part of me thinks it’s right to sacrifice a life for another but I am absolutely rubbish at it. Is it possible to grieve over the loss of a life but also loss of a marriage?
Hello @CatLadyLincs,
I’m so sorry for the loss of your mum, and the situation you find yourself in with your husband. Thank you for sharing this with us. I’m just giving your thread a gentle, “bump” for you - hopefully someone will have some thoughts to share.
Take good care,
Alex
