How tiring is it to go into your spouses room to ask "how was your day" to hear "I already told you...now go away!" Whaaa? Was I there? Did I miss something? Dang it. Grrr. Talk to me like that.

It must be very frustrating for you. Does your spouse know that you have DID or does he not believe you or understand what it is?

They don't care. It's about them, not me. I'm just the crazy cuckoo they have to put up with.

What if you were blind and he said (I imagine this in a strong Brooklyn accent) " didn't you already see the description of MY DAY on the chalkboard when you first came in?that was, what, five minutes ago? Geez , I'm trying to conserve words here and be a more effecient communicator and all that and this is what you do. Forget about it. Go a way ."

Then would he realize he's being an insensitive doofus?

People like that want me to not ask them about their day, lol.

I'm sorry he was so insensitive. This happens to me at times. Often I'm apt to give a smartalec reply such as after you tell me ## times, then question why I might still be asking, lol, but I have found that trying to discuss it more sensitively and adding that I know it must be frustrating on their end, etc, often brings out their compassion. And if it doesn't, it says more about them than me and I just carry on with my day.

It's not your fault that you didn't remember. At least parts and you care enough to ask and he'd do well to remember that probably.
