All hope is lost/help

[Evie]

Haven't posted for a few days, been reading a lot though.

As usual with a high, you soon come back down, although I always have happy face on when H is around.

D1 leaves on Thursday for France for 6 months, so alot of emotional goodbyes over the past weekend, it will be an emotional week.

H looks tired and has a cold sore (due to stress), i'm not hearing quite so much from him but he is still very much involved, I try not to be around to much when I know he's coming to the house. It seems as if H is throwing himself into work more and more. I guess I understand this if he has nothing to do in his free time, but to my understanding the amount of time he spent at work was one of the reasons for the breakdown.

I am rereading DR and trying to come up with some goals, but when I read some of the other posts I realised that i am lucky in the respect that my H will stay longer in the house when he visits, he will look me in the eye, he does contact me daily (not to talk about the way i feel but to make arrangements for the boys/business etc). I have tried to detach as much as possible (180 as i have realised I always tried to 'fix' h). H seems sad. D1 leaves on Thursday & I invited H to come for tea on Wednesday, he said he would love too, then he emailed back and said he would like to take us all out for a last family meal the night before she goes.

Can anybody tell me how this reads or have any ideas on anything else I can do because I am still confused by his behaviour.
