T, I understand the feeling of knowing something is going to happen. It suckks, doesnt it?
But nothing you can control so no use worrying about it, right?
You handled the trip thing with his family beautifully. The fact that she is coming during that trip is a bit of Karma. Hee hee. His problem.
I agree with what Juice wrote. My xh told me similar things. He told me more than once that he felt like he was losing his mind.
One time, he misplaced a pen. And he was in a tizzy. Acting like a crazy person. I said, "What's wrong? He said, "I cant find my pen." I said, "Ok, just use a different one." He screamed, "You dont understand. I cant think straight. I just had it. I have to find it. I have to." It was scary.
Another time he said those exact words. "Everything is so hard. I just want to be left alone. I cant even seem to make a simple decision. Life is so hard."
And he still tells me he cant remember large parts of the past. He doesnt remember things that were said. He doesnt remember places he has gone.
It really is a sad thing. I cant imagine feeling that out of control.
