Looking for some advice

Hi,

Im not really sure where to start, i have been married to my Hubby for 21 years and love him dearly but can't say it has always been easy and always thought he had a few problems laying undiagnosed. throughout our relashionship i have felt very much on my own he has always had problems with emotion any on more occassions than i care to recollect left me feeling very on my own unloved and questioning what the hell have i been doing with my life, finally at the end of my tether and some gentle pursuasion i got him to see a doctor and a few specialists later he has been diagnosed with Aspergers and borderline ADD which is no surprise to me.

My question to anyone who can help is how do i support and help him as the way he is is obviusly not his fault and i love him no less now than the day i married him im just not sure i can cope much more as i myself have a serious health issue that i could do with his support on right now but obviously he does not understand this.

sorry so long winded, im just so desperate to make sense of it all. can i add i have a 16 year old Nephew with Aspergers so have quite an understanding of the condition

thanks and appreciation in advance

  • Also, u may prefer a person to talk too as well as books. It maybe,your husband requires outside help to help him relate more. Go 2 your g.p and explain your finding it extremely tough and you can't cope on your own. Perhaps there is a local support group for people with autism.
