My girlfriend had a grand mal seizure in a coma for 6 months
Sat, 04/01/2017 - 19:31Topic: Family & Friends
She hasn't had a seizure for quite some time, it's the effects of her medication which is bi polar medication and the side effects are terrible! Couple that with Korskoff syndrome and it's really hard to have a smooth day to day operation. I love her to the end, now it's effecting my mental and physical health!
Please I need input, more coping skills, support group. I'm starting to question my own mental health and it's break my heart cause I know she doing the best she can!
From what I've read she's in denial about her disability but she uses it as a crutch or something. I no longer can tell where the disillusionment end and the disability begins!
Any suggestions welcome!
Thank you
Craig
