My wife has chronic health issues and I'm struggling

My wife has chronic illness and I’m struggling

Before anyone get started no of course I love my wife. I’m not planning to leave her. I don’t think I’m a bad person, but I’m saying all this to get off my chest.

As soon as we got married, my wife’s chronic illness has started and ever since then it’s pretty much only gotten worse. We’re really young and it’s hard because it feels like we’ve never had a normal marriage and many cases. I feel like I’m more of a caretaker than her husband not just physically but also emotionally as well. I never thought married life would be like this. Sometimes makes me sad and then other times I look her out of my life, and I know that the beauty of my life is directly proportionate to the suffering in it.

All in all, it’s not that I’m upset with her, but I’m just tired tired with life tired with everything sometimes it’s hard to make time for myself whenever I’m the one that’s always needed to take care of everything. I get back home from work and right after work, I take care of my wife and the household. It’s really hard doing all this and sometimes honestly it’s lonely and sometimes my mind even wonders it’s just very difficult. I try my best to keep us afloat provide for my wife physically and emotionally as fast as I can and I tell her that I love her every single day and spend quality time with her whenever I can.
