I couldn't do any housework and when my ex came back from working away he shouted at me for it. When I cried and told him it was because I was ill (and had been staying at my mum's while he worked away) he laughed and did an impression of me crying. Loud wailing and all! [2/3]

So today I panicked that I wasn't doing enough. I cried, Chris held onto me and made sure I was ok before I cracked back on with work (which I'm happy to do because I enjoy it and work from home) and made sure I knew it was ok that I wasn't doing anything around the house. [3/3]

Bonus: I didn't know relationships could be this way for me.
It's still taking some getting used to. But I hadn't cried in months before today and I think that my recovery shows in my usual happiness. I just have to remember it's ok to take it easy when I'm not well.Diesen Thread anzeigen

I hear you. Well in case you needed a reminder, you are absolutely allowed to be ill. You deserve to take care of yourself and practise self-care,

I had a good old cry about it, Chris made sure to reassure me that it's ok if I can't help out for whatever reason because he's also a very capable adult? Strange not having to baby someone.

Anyone who reacts like that to someone telling them they were ill (especially someone they care about who is supposed to care about them) is simply worthless as a person. Period.
