I Was Wondering If Anyone Diagnosed With Parkinsons Had Ever Felt Like They Were Being Emotionally Abused By Their Spouse After A Few Year
I'm sorry you're feeling abused. Have you tried counselling? Has your partner? Do you have someplace safe you can go?
From here, we can't know whether the abuse is real, because your partner feels resentful about the changes in your lives and is taking it out on you, or whether you are having delusions that aren't real. Both are quite possible. Were there times before you were diagnosed when your partner was abusive? Do you have breaks from each other? Too much togetherness can create a lot of tension in a relationship. When caregivers don't get a break they can snap. I think it can go both ways though. Talk to your partner and to your doctor and see what can be done to improve the situation.
Hi Martin, I'm not sure anyone in this community could help you address this concern. We don't know you or your circumstances and people involved so we have no basis for an answer. I do think your doc could suggest a professional who could help you sort your concerns out and resolve your worry.
Please reach out to your doc. You deserve an answer to this very difficult question.
