Tigre,
I read your post in the Stay home...or work outside of home? Thread. I know that you are just venting and we’re here for you. Vent away – anytime you need to. But your post really spoke to me and I wanted to respond.
You spoke of your husband. Perhaps your husband needs a support group. He has many issues to deal with, issues that are no less (nor more so) important than your own, just different. His life has changed also. He is human and is going to feel anger and resentment at the changes thrust upon him, even though he may not want to.
With anger comes guilt. He probably has guilt because he knows that he needs to be patient and understanding, but he can’t help the feelings of anger that slip in. This is natural.
The two of you need to be understanding of each other’s anger and frustration. Keep the lines of honest communication open. It’s okay to feel angry or hurt, just talk about it.
You both need to remember that this is a transitional time for you. No one likes change, but it happens. Eventually, everything will even out. Your life may not be the way it was before the accident, but it will be your life. Just hang in there, you will get through this.
In the meantime, you do have friends. We are your friends. If you need us, we are always here. Just a click away. You can cry, laugh, scream out your frustrations…whatever you need! We will listen.
I understand how you feel. I am learning to accept my epilepsy, and it’s rough. Also, two years ago, my aunt was in a car accident and was paralyzed from the neck down. Her whole life changed. She still has rough patches, but she taught me a lot about hanging in there. It will make you stronger in the end.
If you need someone, just shout!
Your friend!
Ashnan
