I feel like there is a gap when it comes to support groups for the partners of someone with a severe progressive illness. I feel that a lot of what's out there is, maybe understandable, aimed at older people and those more physically involved in caring. But like, I don't know anyone my age (early 40s) dealing with this shit, and the emotional turmoil is the hardest bit. Maybe there needs to be a mastodon hash tag for, no idea what. I don't think the label of "carer" really fits for me
