Hi there everyone!!
I do not know how you are getting by, but my day goes by pretty much moment to moment. With my moods changing from Up to down. I do hope someone out there can relate to what I am going through, and the up hill battle I have ahead of me with my separation and divorce. Right now the only thing that keeps me going is my 3 teenagers, especially my girls. Well hopefully I will get some feedback soon,

kind regards,
KT

I know exactly how you feel. One minute I feel ok and the next I can barely get myself out of bed. My work is my salvation I get to leave my problems at home. Hang in there things will get better in time.

My dear friend, things get better. I know that sounds like such a line of bullsh$t right now, but its true.

Its ok to have the feelings your having now, work through them. Dont ignore them now, deal with it right away. Its a horrible roller coaster ride, but its survivable.

Deal with your guilt if you have any, first, forgive yourself. Then you can move on to making peace with what needs to be done going forward. Be strong.

Just remember you are NEVER alone. There are so many of us here who have gone through exactly what you are going through now. We care, we understand, we sympathize.

Take my hand, i'll walk you through the thorn bushes, I promise to lead you through unscaved...

I truly understand how you are feeling - I feel tired of feeling sorry for myself just long enough to snap out of it - feel empowered briefly then sad again...its a rough ride...My husband has only been gone for 3 months so I keep hoping "time heals"...I rely on my family and friends for support - so I hope you have a good network of people...its hard...hang in there...

I was there all last year.
God... all that drama in my head. I should have said this. Or I should have done that.
If she would have done this.
Those thoughts will stop.
Hey there are lots of people here that can help you through this.

Yeh, I think many of us have been through this if not all of us. It is really though with the ups and downs. But soon, things will start to settle, you will find you are having more ups then downs.

I hope you get to feeling better soon.

You have come to a place where people understand. Just know that you will find comfort in this place when things seem so crazy. We all know so fimilar in what you are going through. Hang in there.

Right there with you. I also have two teenage children. And, they are the only reason I am still here. Hang in there. Wishing you peace and happiness.

I remember that feeling! If it helps, you will gradually feel more "normal" again...maybe even better than you were! My divorce has been final for a year and a half (after his infidelity, drinking, drugs, indifference, abandonment, etc.) and I'm getting remarried on Wednesday to an amazingly wonderful man who treats me like a princess.

I feel for you about the teens. I have 2 of them!
