It was amazing to have my hubby say "I experienced what you have been describing and it was terrifying". When he came to bed he just snuggled up to me and held me, because he finally got that what I go through is horrible and there is no way to make it quit, I just have to ride the storm and try to keep safe.
I just wanted to share this. I know that many of our significant others never get what happens to us, they just think that we have control. Although he has been supportive, he gets frustrated and angry easily because of my illness.
Sorry I had to edit your post. ]
