The A my H had has caused me to be focused on only the situation. Whenever I have a free minute to reflect on the situation with my H and me, I will. Total consumption of time in the recovery of my marriage. Meanwhile my house for the first time in years looks like a dorm room. My business is suffering and my bills need to be done, but here I sit typing my pain away. When I have read, typed, and dwelled to the point of emptiness I know that I am done. If i try not to respond to my feelings by posting, I can't finish any work I need to do. MB forum has become a place for me to get out all the pain and begin to function again.After I am done on the site, I can work on everything I need to do with much more energy! I am not sure if this is good or bad?! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
Anyone else addicted to MB??

It's sort of like triage...if your M is on death's door, you drop everything to try to save it. If it were one of your family members who were sick, you'd do the same. In time, if your M improves, you probably will find more "normal" things to do with your time, but for now, it's what you need. There.....one less thing to worry about.
