He tries...I'm sure similar posts have been posted like this.

But, I'm struggling today.

My b/f works...I don't, he just started...and now I have a whole bunch of "chores" at night to help him.  I WANT to do it but they exhaust me.

Lunches made, laundry, bed made, dinner made....dishes cleaned...

So today...I'm just flat out and I mistakenly took my medicine on an empty stomach and I feel high as a kite and worthless...as far as moving.....I have 2 beds to make...and apt. with psychaiatrist and I feel like he thinks I am doing nothing all day and that the little chores I am doing are nothing.

Well, they are alot to me...I am so burnt out..hips and legs ache as well as shoulder blades..and head is in a fog.

I just want to sleep right now and I can't.

    Hi missy I understand what you are saying about trying to help out as I done it myself an felt so exhausted after it as Lil as they where. I have stopped doing them now as it made me 10 times worse my husband will not allow me no more as recently had to really scary incidents ending up in hospital so nw am not allowed to but I feel ur pain as I feel bad not helping no more an I do think he thinks am lazy an when I do mention it to him he tells me not to be stupid.

    I would say as others have said to get him to read up on it that what my husband did which helped loads. Also if he can take him to app with you ano it hard with him working but it may help. My husband as just packed in work for a couple of weeks due to the health problems I have had but it was easy for him as he is a taxi driver an can return when ever he wants.

    Also try an sit down and have a chat about how you are feeling it may help an always getting told by ppl to do it as I dnt like to tell ppl my problems or about my health problems.

    I hope it all works out for you an u get it sorted kirsty xx

    I know what you mean I have a new man in my life who has been a taxi driver for about18 years now I've been with him for about6moths now and when I first moved in with him I was always getting up with him for work at 5am in the morning and yes he was getting mardy with me about it. I don't mind the cleaning up as yes I have ocd on top of Fibro but now when I do stay in bed he calls me a lazy bitch half the time I don't know if he messing around with me our not and when stuff doesn't get done he moans at me its just some days I just can't seam to get motivated in anything so I sort have the same problem as you and on top of everything I have two cats too look after as well
