thank you, i'll be alright i just get emotional when talking about this. I haven't ever really connected with any outlet or approach to deal with this. Is there something wrong with me that I can't forget about this trauma??

forbes - No, there is nothing "wrong" with you because you can't forget the infidelity. None of us "forgets." But that's not the same thing as healing from the trauma.

We could spend more time on that, but before doing so I want to address your "didn't mean it when I said I was contemplating suicide." IF, and I do mean IF, you are giving any thought to actually ending your life as a way to escape "all this," then CALL the Suicide Hotline immediately.

If you dealing with the trauma of infidelity and the "crazy" swings of emotions that go with it, get on an anti-anxiety or anti-depressant from your Doctor.

If you are just now beginning to realize that "do it yourself" doesn't work very well with infidelity recovery, then you've come to the right place for help in understanding what's been going on and to get some help in how to actually begin to heal.

I'm hoping it's the latter, even though you've suffered with this for so many years. As the saying goes, "better late than never."

So...which is it?

God bless.
