  • Hi Hottie,

    I'm very sorry to hear your husband is displaying angry outbursts and especially that you are feeling scared by this.

    It is important that you can access the appropriate support for this, if you aren't already. I'm sure you're in touch with your husband's care team, but if not or if they are unaware of this behaviour then do speak to them to see how they can help.

    If things get particularly difficult, there are people you can speak to - for example Refuge (for support with domestic violence) and Carers Trust.

    We also have nurses available, who can be reached on 0808 800 4040 (Monday-Friday, 9-5).

    Please do reach out to others where you feel able to do so.

    And please do let us know how you are getting on - we are here for you.

    Best wishes,

    Ben
