Not feeling too good lately. I'm trying so hard to get past this & I haven't called him for aweek exactly today. I've only texted twice regarding our daughter. It's so hard. I am still missing him so much but I'm forcing myself to "be happy" & positive. It doesn't work too badly till I'm alone in the evening. I'm reading self-help books about "letting go" but they seem to depress me even more. On a more positive note though, I've joined a gym & start on Monday. Maybe the physical pain I will be in will take my mind off the emotional pain....

I hope you are feeling a little better today. I\'ve avoided self-help books because I\'m afraid they\'ll cause me to obsess about my situation, but I think they can be helpful at some stage later in the process of moving on. The gym is great! I started exercising daily when i realized that there were few things I could control about my situation (and it was one of the only things I had the mental energy to do that distracted me). Now I love doing it in and of itself, and really feel good about myself for taking care of my health. And, I\'ve lost at least 40 pounds in the last 5 months. Do it! You will feel better for so many reasons.
