SO can't go a day wo a health complaint [View all]

My partner can't go one day without talking about a pain , ache. I have jaw problems, now he does. His mouth was open too long for tooth removal. Or, its his constant back problems. Spasms. Insomnia. I've been hearing this for 25 yrs.
I asked if we can go one day without him talking about his health. He can't. He does have problems.

I have health anxity and this is severly affecting my mental health. I asked him can we go one day. He said not if his tooth hurts. I try to tune it out. If he dies, he dies. He smokes and has barrett esophagus and drinks booze.
