My husband was in the ICU for two weeks. He had the flu and didn't feel well enough to drink and went into withdrawal. He was intubated for over a week and my kids and I were there every day. He agreed to go into rehab and he's been there for half of his 30 days. I just feel more and more sad the longer he's been there. We are in our mid-sixties and this isn't what I expected my life to be. We have 6 grandchildren with more on the way. It was so hard to go through all this and watch my kids with this too.
I need to find someone to talk to or a therapist because I feel like I really can't go on like this- it's harder every day and I can't even picture what our life is going to be like when he comes home. I'm on the edge of tears all the time.
Please, can someone respond. I just don't know what to do.
Yes you do need to talk to someone. Sounds like your the one holding it together for alot of people.
I went to counselling for about 6 months as I was at breaking point and she helped me a huge amount.
I'm so sorry your going through this.
Sending you a hug xx
