Good morning everyone. I have to create this account to post this.
I can't even sleep at night lately.
I'm so tired and I need help right now. I have been doing this all by myself for so long now, without much complain but now, I need help.
Before I got married to my husband, I didn't know he had a seasonal mental health challenge, but not violent.
I met him in the university, he was in medicine, he had dreams, very ambitious, one of the best in his department, Working his way to travel abroad to continue his education. We were just friends, but I liked him. He kept on asking me out, but I declined. I wanted to graduate first.
We parted ways in year two. He changed school, so, I knew nothing about him again till years later.
Reconnected with him years later after graduation, to my greatest surprise, he didn't graduate, wasted all his resources and couldn't travel out. We still love each other, so we got married.
after the birth of my first child, I wanted to leave him, but I couldn't because he was a good man, but with too many changes and I was the only one who truly care and was there for him.
Three years ago, he became much better. He got a small job, Started bringing in little for upkeep. I saw change and I was happy. We had our second child last year after 8yrs.
Since early this year, the whole thing came up again. Since then, he became jobless again.
The financial burden is all on me. Right now, we can't afford to renew our rent.
I lost my business capital some times ago in wrong business, since then, it has been so much struggles.
I'm trying hard but it's not enough.
I'm thinking of working away, but to where? what about my children? Who will be there for them? What about him? But I'm tired of being in a marriage where I have to struggle for everything, where I can not depend on my man.
Pls, help us renew our house rent.
What do I do?

Your husband seems like he suffers from schizophrenia. And those episodes are psychotic. He needs therapy. And he needs to stay on his meds. The reality is, until he finds himself with your support, you'll be the "man of the house". These were things you should have looked at before marriage, especially for the sake of your kids. He can live a healthy and normal life but not until he learns how to read the signs and manage the disease. It's a disease of the mind. And it has no cure. But it can be managed. How can you tell its schizo? |

Mental illness is not a bad thing
There are people that are living with mental illnesses and earning a living
Elon musk has aspengers syndrome
Find out the type of mental illness your husband has and look for a way to take care of it
Btw you and your husband need to go for marriage counseling Your type of person annoys me,mental illness is not a bad thing? How many types of mental illness do you know because elon musk has aspergers whatever,mental illness is now okay. Do you know anxiety disorder,bullimia nervosa,clinical depression are all mental illness that can lead one to commit suicide? Op I will just give you an advise that will help your husband,let him start exercising,jogging or walking every morning,let him cut off sugar from his diet(no added sugar,no food that is high in sugar and will increase his blood sugar),let him feed on probiotics(yoghurt,sauerkraut) Let him eat just this food Beans,oat,millet(pap),vegetables I assure you he will be himself in a months time,just help him in this dark phase of his life,avoid saying negative things to him bcus it will worsen his condition. Going to a psychiatrist and getting medication is 50/50 and he will be on it for life. |

I didn't see anything that depict mental challenge here in your write up, or is it the fact that he's jobless and can no longer afford to pay the rent and perhaps he's depressed that you attribute to mental challenge? All you need is keep encouraging and pray for him. With prayers and constant contact with God all things are possible.
Good luck 3 Likes |

■ Going to a psychiatrist and getting medication is 50/50 and he will be on it for life. 1. I believe what he meant is that mental illness is typically not a result of a fault committed nor of spiritual issues in one's life. Basically, it is not a result of evil in one's life or character. 2. A daily Adrenaline high does not serve as treatment for mental illness. It is not his body that needs the help but his mind that is broken. 3. There is no truth to this claim. |

There’s a process
Mental illness has various types
He needs diagnosis then a prescription of requisite medication
The best place to take him to is a specialist psychiatrist
And if he is given medication, supervise him to ensure he takes it in the RIGHT quantity and time
What’s your location? hello dearest sister, your story is challenges and true of most homes/families today in Nigeria nay the world. mental challenges incubated by economic challenges is challenging but not difficult to overcome. your faith in whatever you have believed is true and correct to do is under serious threat your resolutions and your way forward could bring peace and progress to your family or scatter it further. first check your faith and hold fast all you have accepted as true and correct and continue to do them. further, you have to help your husband he surely need you most at this time in his lifetime. your children need you too. seek help from good pastors or imaam that have known reputation that you are already familiar with. if it is not in your current place of worship do not hesitate to try the new recommendations. carry along members of your family ie husband people and your own people. for business and new incomes, kindly look around you to provide services needed by people in your immediate vicinity and build on it. a woman can partake in all kinds of business. also try to increase your scope of friends to accommodate more life experiences. jettison anyone you can label NFA immediately. May the good Lord send his angels to help you and relieve you of your fears. Ijmn. |

You rejected good men who approached you when you were younger and beautiful to marry this mentally retardant.
You chose your destiny. You should suffer it alone.
Never pity a woman who is suffering in her home. Good men came for her but she rejected them saying "he's too short, he doesn't have money, he's to tall, he doesn't have a car etc" and settled for a guy who used suya to bribe her.
Many women wished the men they rejected came back. But guess what, none will come back.

3) Married a mentally challenged man, though unknowingly, and had a child for him,then after discovering he had mental issues,you went ahead to have another child for him!
4)You are asking for rent renewal.....is this your main challenge? Will that solve your husband's mental state?
