ok i just need to vent this morning.... i'm frustrated to NO end atm..
nothing tastes "good" if you will, i'm FORCING myself to eat a few bites every hour or so just to keep the guts moving, and not to lose weight but i have NO motivation to move off the couch... my friend D who is "supposed" to be gaining strength for his surgery is weak as water, and almost seems too close to the point of giving up the fight to suit me and i can't keep pulling him along...and it seems like ever since i got out of the hospital my hubby has been constipated and in pain and generally miserable, its like he's experiencing what i was going through that ended me up in the hospital...he's done nothing but whine and complain abut how miserable he is and how much pain he's in and so forth and so on since Thurs and is still going full strength at it this morning...the whining i mean...and i'm sorry but i'm just not able to cook meals atm..or eat them for that matter...and i'm certainly not able to be the rock these men have depended on for months cause i can't get motivated to do jack...and THAT is pissing me off to no end too...i'm TIRED of sitting on the couch or laying in the bed and doing nothing....this is not me but i don't have the energy to do anything
How in the heck did yall manage in cases like this???

Imo, you shouldn’t have to be concerned with anything but feeling better when possible…..no trouble, no tasks, no listening to others pain, nothing but resting and focusing on feeling as good as you can at the moment. I don’t know why you aren’t getting that. Sorry…maybe, they don’t realize how they sound. I have a family member who constantly complains of pain and being sick. She’s done it for many years no matter the circumstances. So frustrating. It’s a difficult situation. Hope it improves.

Give your husband dulcalex for constipation and order take out or have a friend deliver the take out food. Tell your husband and friend the food has arrived and it is their choice if they want to eat it. Then sit on the couch.
I make a list of things I need to do and tackle what I can. Sometimes I don't leave the couch.
I do what I can and then rest. Some days are better than others.
Take care of you then help others.
