Will this situation ever become any easier to cope with.
Today my husband had a visit from a mutual friend of ours. She arrived about 20 mins before I did and had already told my husband about all her planned holidays to Italy etc. It's just a year since she lost her husband and I think it's great she is just getting on with her life.
After she left my husband became quite low spirited. He actually said " how can someone who has lost her husband be happier I am. No one cares about me nobody wants me, I'm just a nobody. If I stay here I'll be as bad as all the rest of them here"
He has said things like this before and it never fails to make me feel awful. Yet he doesn't blame me for anything. I really don't know how to deal with the kind of things he says.
I just feel at a loss. I feel like I have let him down and he is incarcerated in a care home when he shouldn't be.
