Kent, are you ever right about that expenditure of energy! Trying to get my brain unstuck! Sounds like things are pretty even keel for you and your wife. I'm so glad! Guess the main thing I need to do is hold as steady as possible, be as kind as possible and let time heal this episode. Sometimes my H seems like the most dense person I've ever met but he understands about how time heals so much better than I do. As a matter of fact, he understands a few things better than I do.
Andy, lack of tension and wife who would also like things to be different sounds like some very important aspects are going right. I make life more difficult than it has to be by not accepting the "way things are" calmly. If I could learn to do that I could use that precious energy to figure out the next reasonable step to make things better. Hmmmm, maybe right now, rather than berate myself as a hysteric, maybe I need to calmly accept that my emotions can get the better of me sometimes and make a plan to exercise, visit here, journal, etc. when that happens? Then I'll start working on accepting the rest of reality. Yeah, that's it!
