General Overloaded Then Melt Down

[amethist]

For the last few days hubby has been trying his best to stay positive and keep on a level, but tonight as last Thursday he crashed into crisis mode again.

We have been going through the Psych report form the other party, pulling it apart and making comments to send to his solicitor, to be sent to hubby's legal teams Psych.

It has finally got way too much for him and he started blaming me for pushing him with it, and wanted to get away from me the house and all connected to this. It was utter turmoil for about 2 hours, he was shouting and cursing the world and his wife, while I tried to keep calm and quieten him down.

In the end he told me to deal with it, send it off and forget it. Also saying he would not go to court if they cannot finalize this between them, as he was not going to be stuck in the middle of "These Idiots".

I finally managed to calm him down, and he sank into crisis mode, crying shaking and not really knowing what was going on around him again.

Thank goodness for my aromatherapy blends, as tonight out came the strong sedative one, he was asleep in minutes. it works a swell as the strong meds, but no drugged up after effect.

There was no use calling anyone, as he was not a danger to anyone, nor himself, just scared and disorientated. mind spinning at a million miles an hour and wanting it all done and finished with.

So another crisis dealt with on my own.

I am glad your husband is calm and asleep. Sorry you had to go through that, Amethist. I hope you also get your rest tonight.

Thanks AngelaMarie.

I will be able to sleep, because the oil on him will help me sleep too. But he knows to wake me up if he needs to.

I am glad!! I wish both you are your husband a restful night!!:sleep:

I am sorry this is happening amethist. That really sucks that you feel you have to go through it alone though. You really don't, we are here to provide at least some support ( and lots of free hugs if nothing else).

Please remember to take care of yourself too!

Amethist,

I am sorry to hear this, although I can totally understand Stu's meltdown. He is very blessed to have you as his supporter.

Please take care of you too!

Really sorry you dealt with that on your own Amethist, I hope you sleep well tonight. As a lawyer, I know sometimes the paperwork a client has to deal with can be daunting at best! Really hope things go better tomorrow. You give so many of us positive words and hope, you're really appreciated here! Take care :)

Oh Amethist, well done.

I am not going into it here, but I so, so get this situation. We had 8 years of this with our court case.

You are amazing and your strength is contageous. Hope you slept well. x

After all this hubby was beginning to loose it big style again.

So after talking to his Community Mental Health nurse, who picked up his phone even though he was not working yesterday, hubby has increased his medication by 10mg for now. I also have increased mine by 0.5mg too.

This morning we are both much calmer and more relaxed, and the roller coaster has slowed down again and seems to be in our control today, and not on a collision course with disaster. But it was getting close.

I'm very glad it didn't keep going and get worse for you and husband. Enjoy your day!
