I find myself 57, and with the PD has come a really difficult situation..My PD has taken a huge toll on my life my family and everyone around me. And as the symptoms have increased in the last 3 yrs.. meds control them well enough for now...except when i am in stressful situations and then i literally go to pieces. I have been married to the same person 35 yrs and she has issues with depression and verbal and physical outbursts directled at me and other adult family members..Worse is counseling and therapy hasnt helped control or avoid any of it ....Question to forum? Given your progressive PD, in similar circumstance if you believed as well as others that your health was being impacted..would you/could you/should you... leave the situation to be in a more compassionate environment and with a person more compassionate and understanding regarding PD and your general health and welfare..? Or stay and start to circle the drain...
I left much out...to avoid over-sharing, and I feel so guilty and quite sad ,even afraid asking for advice..im miserable.. need a lifeline....i know it...and found one...SO NOW WHAT?
PS...no not new or impulsive behavior..knew 5 yrs ago before the PD and before meds..should have faced it then and not now...Help Forum-ers
