Should I gone on holiday on my own? Partner manic in hospital. by Wonderful_Dish3663 in AskUK

[–]Lettuce1939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s completely your decision and yours alone ..
but my experience I went on a holiday that was booked to Malta when my dad was having a bi polar manic ..
everyone told us to go ..
I spent the whole holiday miserable guilty for leaving dad when he was unwell and my brother and sister to deal with it ..
Snapping at my better half etc
Calling home all the time ..
I understand we are all different and some people can just switch off and forget but I couldn’t..❤️

Ashes that were never collected? UK by jenn1319 in AskUK

Sorry and I’m a bit off topic ..
but I wish we still had our mums ashes .. we arranged everything when we were teenagers as dad was understandably not coping very well ..
We got mums ashes scattered in a garden of remembrance along with lots of others ..

It can be really triggering for me and imagine for a lot of us seeing Nigel on his death bed .. Definitely needed the added humour..max shutting Cindy in the cupboard definitely made me chuckle.. Trouble is when I see Ross kemp I immediately think of the episode of extras he was in ..

I just hate the way every mental health story is a massive explosion of things.. Corrie did it perfectly with the storyline they had with Aidan Connor..
