[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG- you all have NO idea how difficult it can be on a marriage to take care of a spouse who has special needs like this.  It is unrelenting and worse than being a single parent at times.  You don’t want to think about what you would do in this situation and so you are castigating OP. Everyone is acting like cheating or leaving someone for no other reason than you think you can do better than your spouse is morally better than leaving because you have become a martyr in your marriage and are constantly running on empty taking care of an entire household AND managing a special needs adult.

OP- see if you can find treatments and look into spousal support groups for people with special needs.  This sucks sometimes and you have to have a place where you can feel your feelings about this too. [/quote]

I don't think 5-10 day spells 2-3 times a year is special needs and unrelenting. How different is it than a spouse who has to travel for work or works opposite shifts?[/quote]

Omg just stop. [b]You are entirely clueless. [/b]Just shut up. I’m a new poster. I am youngish, with kids and I also have a spouse with incurable chronic illness. It’s a million times worse than being a single parent. You can’t imagine. Don’t dismiss our feelings when you absolutely have no clue.[/quote]

The hell I am--I am a caregiver spouse. [/quote]

Oh really ? then where’s your compassion? [/quote]
