Hi Everyone,
My partner completed his treatment 3 weeks ago. This last 3 weeks have been the hardest. He barely communicates and when he does it’s usually to moan at me or criticise me. My anxiety is high and I’m low. I’m trying to get out a bit and keep myself busy but life is hard. He’s now going through the angry stage.
Obviously the heat isn’t helping!
xXx

Morning. tnx 4 the update. What support are you both getting, there should be a dedicated Nurse - otherwise mayB contact Macmillion Nurses or the other organisation (with the daisy) can't remember the name
.
When people are scared they can become angry. A natural reaction too when keeping feelings internalised. You'll need broad shoulders for a while when he lets go.
Into next week will probably be the time to sit down and discuss where you go - "When you moan I feel sad, am I not supporting you enough?" type conversation. This of course is what support services should be offering. Regardless of C-19, it's about being able to vent in a safe place.
What plans do you have this week for U?
