Wanted to say hi to everyone. Gosh I just read some of the subjects and it brought back some real sad memories.<P>I feel pretty good. It just feels so different. <P>Ex...gosh that seems weird to say...is still acting the same.....but I feel very different about it all. No more crying....no more aching heart.<P>I guess my love bank is empty....had been for a while, but I just didn't want to give up.<P>I hated the fact that I didn't want to love him anymore. I felt I had too.....I promised.<P>To think that many, many months ago...I didn't want to live anymore. Boy...now I pray every night that I stay healthy and happy.....that I live to see everything that is going to come my way.<P>I'm nervous...scared....frightened about what life has in store for me....but I am also anxious.....excited.....and above all.....happy to accept what comes my way.<P>Good luck to all of you.....<P>Nancy

Nancy<BR>You sound good!!!<BR>Keep taking care of you okay?<BR>

Nancy,<P>I KNEW you would get to this place!!! <BR>And it does get easier with each passing day! I'm happier than I think I've been in about 5 years, I just didn't want to think that I was unhappy. <P>HUGS,<BR>Mitzi

Hi Mental,<P>I've been wondering about you...and here you are. <P>Your update was just what I needed to hear tonight. I am so happy that you came out on the other end of your nightmare, and you are doing fine. Isn't it funny, the things that scare us the most arent' really so scary when we face them are they?<P>So, did MB work for you. Heck yeah, I can see it did. It worked in the most important way of all. You are happy, you survived. I hope I can come through whatever life brings me the way you have. Mental, I must say your story was the saddest I have seen here. The way your H treated you and your kids...and the way the justice system treated you...and you made it. It didn't seem like you had anyone to depend on but yourself at times, and it was enough.<P>I pray for the dignity you posess, regardless of how my situation turns out.<P>allison

i needed the boost of hope today, and im glad it's you.<BR>there's a warrant out for my arrest, and my lawyer forgot to go to court to get it suspended. gee thanks. sheriff's knocking on h's door everynight to get me. ugh. h has been subpeonaed, claims he refuses to testify against me, but i don't trust him at all. i have to be really nice to make sure he won't. it's tough, but a good reminder to plan A. other than that, me and the kids are having a great vacation 4 states away from H. four BIG states .<BR>(((((MENTAL))))))

Glad to hear from you, Nancy. And so glad you sound so very strong!<P>Think of you often.<P>Lori

Hi Nancy,<P>It's so good to hear that you are doing well.<BR>Keep it up!!
