You've got it harder than most - I feel for you. Make sure you take some time out for yourself and don't get lost in his health problems. Try to be thankful he's still around by counting your blessings. A friend of mine lost her husband when he was 26 and it always made me consider how trivial the arguments were between me and my husband - I would really miss him if he was gone. (the house would be cleaner, and we wouldn't fight over the TV/computer, but I would miss him terribly). Hang in there and take care of yourself.

That'll happen. It's just life. Get out and do something you enjoy hiring help or sitters if you have to. Go somewhere fun or start a hobby. Have people your husband can rely on OTHER THAN YOU for some emotional support. Call your own family and friends for some of your own support. If he's relying on only you it can be very taxing on your nerves. Ignore Matt W's answer! Catering to his every whim won't help this. LOL Best wishes!

Well what can I say. Was he on Disability when you met , have you been married long, is he rich, divorce him, throw his lazy butt out onto the street.
I actually thought people married for Richer for Poorer and in Sickness and in Health. Guess the Vows in your case weren't that heartfelt.
Try compassion and understanding. There are many support Agencies out in the wide open world and even respite care if the disability is severe and you need a well deserved break.
Perhaps mental health issues are a consideration with him....depressed, feeling of worthlessness and feeling less of a man since disability

He's driving you crazy because you're not doing your part around the house. Any sloppy, slobby, disorganized wife is looking for trouble. Try ironing his underwear, cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner (instead of that microwave crap you feed him), and suck on you know what at least three times a week (like my wife does). I guarantee he will get off you case and you will have a happy husband. We deserve it!

Of course, and sometimes I drive him crazy and sometimes our kids drive us both crazy. Anytime you live with someone in close proximity you are going to grate on each other. A little space is the only cure. Remember that you love HIM, and that the situation is the issue.

I think that's part of the requirement for being married. Mine can make me crazy at times, but I love him anyway.
