      From miamiblues43 February 20, 2008

      OMG that is awful you must be devastated. I realize a hug isn't going kick him in the groin like he deserves but hopefully you will smile for a bit!!

      From painfullylost February 20, 2008

      I understand completely! I left a nasty message on the OW's voicemail. She called my H and told him she didn't need the pain of dealing with that. Poor her! I'm sorry her screwing my husband and me finding out has left her in such a state of emotional turmoil! I know where whe lives, but figured she wasn't worth it. My H, on the other hand, is no longer living here! God Bless.

  • Support Groups

    • Close ADHD / ADD

      I've tried everything I've heard of. Hopefully there's another treatment out there that can help?

      Treatments

      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Adderall Working / Worked
      Definate improvement but there's no doubt more to be done.
      Behavior Management Working / Worked
      Didn't work but there's a variation of it I just learned of that I'm starting.
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      Instead of soda, juice. Instead of fries, mashed potatoes. No deli meats, no deli cheese, no hot dogs. Good practice for anybody but noticeable difference in my ADHD son.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      I've been praying for a miracle...
      Physical Exercise Somewhat Helpful
      Sometimes simply running up & down stairs or jumping rope for a few minutes is all he needs to calme down. If done before school, there's a noticeable difference. The challenge is his mood. Sometimes he wants to do it, sometimes he won't.
      Ritalin Not Working
      It seemed to work for a short time, but the side effects didn't justify the slim results
    • Close Stress Management

      I'm happily married with an 8 yr old son with ADHD. Parenting is stressful enough but add to that, a stressful job, mourning from my brother's recent passing, and a lack of time and BAM! Stress Management issues. Luckily I have an awesome Marriage and strong relationship with God though. Otherwise, I'd probably be a wreck. :)

      Treatments

      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Having a shoulder to cry on is helpful even if "the shoulder" doesn't have advice to give.
      Meditation Working / Worked
      It works when I make the time. I just don't always make time. :(
      Writing Working / Worked
      This helps if I have the energy. If I'm too fatigued, it's fruitless.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      I find the potency of prayer is doubled if done in writing and at night.
      Aromatherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I find it works if it's used with music or meditation. By itself, it has little effect.
    • Open Healthy Sex

      The bottom line is I wish my drive matched my darling husband's. (I need to learn how to tone it down.)

    • Open Infidelity

      I suspected my Husband has been cheating on me since Oct2007. I gathered proof using my training as a detective and cornered him into admitting it. Very long story short, we're working on our marrage though he keeps in contact with her by email still! The truth came out 1/18/08 and I've been struggling with tempations of revenge. We all worked together and were friends to boot! My beleifs stop me from hurting her... The inner war continues...

      Treatments

      Writing Working / Worked
      I wrote down all the reasons why Im better than her for my husband. I also wrote down all the positive things to remind myself of when I feel Im about to loose it.
      Prayer Somewhat Helpful
      I have to pray immediately as my mind starts going to a dark place. Otherwise Im too emotional and torn to get anything out of it.
