This is the first time I will be alone on my Anniversary. We have only been apart a bit more than a month and although I am feeling stronger. (some days are better than others) I am already dreading tomorrow. Maybe I shouuld have taken the day off? I hope not to break down in front of my students. I know that working ouot in the mornings has been a gift to me. I may need more than 40 minutes tomorrow :o( to keep the sadness at bay. This sight has been a blessing and I am so glad to have found it.

You will get through tomorrow because you can. I can't imagine what I am going to do on our anniversary, so I can't offer advice. But you will survive and we are all here for you. Be strong.

bzena...welcome to DS. We are glad to have you and will support you in any way that we can. The best part of coming here is that...you are among those who completely understand the difficulties you have been thru and those to come. I know it's hard;it's hard for all of us. Come to DS everyday, read the stories of others, add your own if you wish. Big hugs to you.

I was with my ex for 24 years, married 22 of them. It was hard at first, but now with 3 anniversaries under my belt, it is much better. I worked, it seemed best for me. I did fall apart after work tho, but I had a close friend there with me, that helped a lot. THis year, we would have been married 25 years and I was actually reminded of that. I simply said, "oh yeah" and went about my business. It takes time and many tears, but you will get there too. yeah, go for the 40 minutes tomorrow. Please take very good care! Stephanie

bzena, As others have said, you are stronger than you know. Working out? What's that? Maybe I should try it! LOL.

You are using all the tools at your disposal and wisely! Carry on!

DS is a great place to heal while you face those inevitable bad days! Margie

Hang tough and try to draw happiness from your students. They could be great support without even knowing it. The more distractions you have the quicker it goes by.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
