We were wondering where were you last night at DV Care ?. At this point I really think you should get AD med.

BTW: Thanks for the BDay card. -rh-

Yup been there too, just take comfort that there are many here that have gone/ are going through your pain and that it WILL get better.

Also know that the only love you can count on is love of yourself, your kids, and God.

Keep your head high in the fact that you are a strong, moral, father. I always find that concentrating on a task makes it easier. So pull open another browser and start reading on news, or your new hobby that your going to pick up with your kid.

Hello, just wanted to say a lot (probably all <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> ) of us have been there....it will pass.

It will. It hurts and it absolutely sucks, but this too shall pass.

Anti D's aren't a bad idea. I'd say do it to get you over the hump. I took them for too long and found myself almost numb. Just came off them.

Sorry you are so down, you have every right to feel that way. It is a daily battle to kick ourselves in the behind and be so strong. Sometimes we need a down day too. But, force yourself to make tomorrow better.

You're not alone. It is a very tough time of year too.

Take care.

HL-

Hang in there....I have cried almost every day for the last 5 weeks.....this is despite me not crying for probably the last 5 years. Kinda like a floodgate has opened within me. I have to keep telling myself - I will "win" either way this ends up - I will heal myself, grow closer to God, and get counseling & deal with my issues....which will make me a better person whether or not my WW decides to stay or go. I am working on being thankful for this opportunity for a change in perspective....I am not sure that anything less would have gotten me off my a$$ and into counseling....

Hope this helps -
