Support and understanding
I think my partner has said the most hurtful thing he could ever say he said "his hard earned money" as if I don't struggle every day with my progression and work for my disability money just by moving and keeping independent. I have a degree in Biomedical Science - since my diagnosis is still relatively new I've taken time out to process. I have always worked. I had 3 jobs whilst doing my degree.
I am so hurt by his words that he threw at me in anger.
No body not even your nearest people in your lives understand this awful disease. And how it effects you. And words mean a lot.
Sorry for the rant I'm so fed up xx
Totally understand how you feel. I am quite concerned about being cared for by my other half. I have been shocked by my spouse’s lack of ability to be supportive. I hope you and your other half can work it out. I believe fear can make people act angry and strangely. Perhaps he is scared. Still people should be more sensitive sometimes. I hope you can find a path that works for you. Good luck.
Ah, that's tough. No wonder you feel hurt. I'm struggling to work as well and I find it really challenges my sense of identity. The situation must hard for your partner as well and he's probably trying to deal with his own emotions around it. MS UK offer counselling in case you didn't know about it and thought it was something that could help you.
