[QUOTE="Wifey1234, post: 2542170, member: 551691"] Update. I wanted to thank everyone for their help. Things progressed. Managed to get OH to get a CGM, 2nd night in and they turned it off (I didn't know at the time) as it kept alerting and waking them up! This started a really long and stressful battle from me when I couldn't wake them up as they had a hypo in their sleep and were unconscious. Once recovered a few hours later, a firm chat with a lot of tears from me were had. Promises to change and take better care of themselves, me explaining I'm feeling like a prisoner in the house as I'm too afraid to leave them alone. That eve OH was on night shift, didn't take insulin with them then called me to drop it off. Made a comment 'see, if you left me I'd be dead' then claimed it was a joke when I said how that made me feel. It's several months later, I've said I want a divorce. OH still isn't looking after themselves, drinking around 20/30units of alcohol a evening at a minimum, eating junk food, ignoring the CGM alerts. Did make an appointment with the diabetic team and then told me when I asked how they got on that it was 'bad' but none of my concern as I never cared anyway. As hard as this all is, as much as my head and my heart are in two different places and completely broken I had to make an awful choice that he will never look after himself and I will continue to break and break till there's nothing of 'me' left anymore.
