COMPLETE MELTDOWN!!
I HAD A MAJOR.....MELTDOWN WHEN I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH MY DAUGHTER AND WE WERE DISCUSSING XMAS. OUT OF THE BLUE I AM BALLING LIKE A BABY. WE TALKED ABOUT SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT ARE ON MY MIND. THEN WHEN HUBBY CAME HOME SHORTLY THEREAFTER I HAD ANOTHER MELTDOWN. WE TALKED AND HE IS GOING TO TAKE ON SOME OF THE RESPONSIBILITIES FROM ME. THIS SHOULD HELP! PLUS JUST HAVING HIM LISTEN AND UNDERSTAND IS A HUGE RELIEF. I KEEP EVERYTHING TO MYSELF. I DON'T LET HIM KNOW WHEN I AM UNDER STRESS. I FEEL I NEED TO BE "STRONG"!1 WHATEVER THAT MEANS??? ANYWAY, IT IS NOT THE CURE BUT IT SURE WILL HELP THAT WE ARE ON THE SAME PAGE. I AM PROBABLY IN THE WORST PLACE I HAVE BEEN IN 20 YEARS...NOT GOOD!!
PUT IN A FEW PRAYERS FOR ME.

It breaks my heart to hear you suffering like this Deb. I am so glad that you talked to your daughter and to your husband and that he agreed to help out with the responsibility. My husband always says \"I can\'t know what you want or need unless you tell me\". But, we don\'t want to bother them or appear weak. We forget sometimes that we are human and we are pushing ourselves harder than most because of this disorder.
This is a time that you need to reach out the most and NOT feel guilty about it. This is when you need people most. You are in my heart and prayers Deb, and I hope that you find a peace and come through this episode quickly.....{{{{Hugs}}}}
I do the same thing and not tell my hubby when I am in a bad place.but I am happy that you shared your worries to hubby and daughter.they can help to relieve some of your stress and help you get through this rough spot.I feel so bad I wish we lived closer I would come and help you. For some strange reason I just haven\'t crashed yet from this move.maybe a call to your doc is in order.I am not sure maybe you did that and I am so far behind on journals if so I am sorry I didn\'t know.I will keep you in my prayers. Love and hugs and I am here for you. Love marie
I sure hate to see you going through this but am really happy to hear you were able to open up and talk about what you are feeling. I have an idea how hard that can be since I\'m one of those people who also keeps it all inside and not feeling like I have anyone I can open up to EXCEPT here in my DS journal. But that still isn\'t quite the same as having an actual human being there who can give you feed back and a shoulder to cry on.
You are so blessed to have such a great husband and I love how you give him credit for being such a good man. Hugs to both of you.
