Quoting Jamesjohn: This is one area that might take some thought on how to either divert, or release and process, her thoughts.
This is where I am hoping the book "Feeling Good" (still wanting for delivery) I mentioned before will help out.
Only when my W gets into a constant state of dispair does she journal. That's one of the reasons why I'm a "snooper", because new entries are a key flag for me to know she is preparing to act upon how she feels. She never journals when she better about herself.
Jethro, I was just making a connection between your experience and JJ's in how the sound of your voices seem to sooth your S's. For the most part, I've trying to coach her thru them. Gentle reminders to breath thru it, telling her it will pass and she will be alright, but for the most part I try to be quiet to allow her to focus on keeping her breathing regular. Maybe its time to take a different approach.
