    • About Me

      I am 41 years old with 3 children. I had not had a weight problem before yet have not been able to get the weight gained from my last child 2 yrs ago. Working on that. I love walking, aerobics, swimming and playing with my kids. I have not had much time for that yet am wanting to get back into those activities. I volunteer at my kids school when I can, especially having a 2 year old. I am a stay at home mom with no extended family close by and my husband travels a lot.

    • Close Depression
      : Clinical (Major) Depression

      I don't feel like depression rules my life, I am just in a bad situation as of current that even the best spirited people would be sad about. Yet when going through such a rough time and having a hard time dealing with an unfortunate situation that would make me depressed. It has gotten worse since I have been at home with a 2 year old and my two older boys don't get my time as much. My husband travels a lot. I was blessed with a healthy, functioning upbringing and married someone who comes from a bad deal. Thought he was different however at 24 you don't realize that the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree and what is learned in childhood sticks and affects adulthood. ugh, it stinks due to not wanting divorce due to 3 kids and I gave up my career for this family but sometimes a healthy, functioning life for kids is better than staying in a mean, emotionally abusive and unstable home environment

    • Close Physical & Emotional Abuse

      18 years of marital and in-law emotional abuse

      Treatments

      Divorce Considering
      Will do in time if things don't change....we are seeing christian counselor together and then I see my psychotherapist. I WILL NOT ACCEPT what I have been given NOR the example for my children
      Forgiveness Too Soon to Tell
      Working on yet there is a HUGE difference in forgiveness and ending relations and getting pity on the abusers (they have an illness) VS. having to forgive and restore with such monsters.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Working. Yes but it is KEY to finding the right person. One who validates you, gives you tools to deal with such atrocious behavior coming your way and helps with new reactions.
      Talking Too Soon to Tell
      JUST DON'T ISOLATE YOURSELF LIKE I DID. Also sometimes TOO embarrassing to talk about with others....NOT working trying to "talk" to abusers. They have no empathy and no remorse.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      I am trying to start the detach process so I can get healthy and relate with not only myself others and be there in a healthy form mentally and physically for my kids. I have to get back to my regular weight to get a little self esteem back. He has stripped the rest
