I am married to my husband now for seven yrs, I have chronic pain and long standing mental health issues with schizoafffective disorder and PTSD, my husband also has mental health issues. It's very frustrating to be unwell at the same time but mostly we can support each other when we are in need. I am convinced that my chronic pain has a definite negative impact on my mood and that of my husband's, it does seem to be a vicious circle. I wondered if anyone else gets stuck in the vicious circle of which I'm speaking.

Please accept this. We my not make it.nothong is any fun anymore. I don't take orders, I don't even take suggestions well. Hi
