    it's really important you tell your partner how you feel. if your partner already knows about and understands your condition you need to explain to them calmly how you feel. maybe you can discuss taking a little time out if you need it in a way that means your kids and partner understand. everyone feels stressed! if your partner does not know about your issues or condition it is important you are honest with them. if it's a big step don't feel like you have to take it all at once, just work towards being more open one bit at a time. if you are scared of telling your partner how you feel completely right off the bat then work on smaller things first. if your partner and you have a good relationship you should be quite emotionally open with each other, but if not you can work towards this slowly. it's not the end of the relationship if you aren't at your ideal level of communication already.

    if you have been diagnosed with a medical issue or suspect one (mental or physical) it is of the up-most importance that you see the appropriate medical professionals. try to be as open as possible about this with your partner. it is better for everyone if you get the help you need.

    It's not normal for most person, but considering your condition, it is very normal. I personally used to have real bad schizophrenia, and when I was lucid even if I didn't want to be alone, I would think to myself how much someone who loved me would suffer, and that I didn't want that to be a problem.

    • Well here is the messed up part.... I function better when I'm alone... Stress which is caused by others is what sets me off so if I was single and didn't have anyone to care for I would for sure thrive much better in this corrupt world..

        I would do fine on my own, or with other people. I'm a big fan of my mother though, and I'm not sure I will ever want to leave her to be on my own, or with another person. But at the same time, people would act like I was some sort of freak.

        • Actually it's normal to me if you don't plan on getting married and having both your mom and your wife living with you In the same house treating them both as " equals"....which is the nightmare I am dealing with now with my monster in law and hubby

    If you can, I'd suggest checking yourself into a rehabilitation type center for 1-2 weeks where all you have to do is focus on yourself. This way you can get the care and attention you need in order to become a better parent/wife when you leave the center. I know people who have done this, it's by no means a cure all, but it may help.
