Wife has filed, and on we go

Mike...sounds like you did well with the visit. You stayed focused and on track with your DB skills. I know how hard it is to want to start talking about the R/M but you did awesome.

I was looking at your post talking about your wife sleeping all the time. I did this when things were really bad with my H. I did it to avoid dealing with reality. I slept to avoid dealing with him, I slept to avoid doing house work. I slept to avoid dealing with myself. I slept just to sleep. In other words, I it was a coping mechanism I used. I still use it. I suffer from depression and anxiety disorder. The anxiety I have had since I was in high school, the depression came after the loss of my parents. Sleeping is how I cope. When I sleep, there is no reality, no bills, no laundry, no H, no R/M issues, nothing...I think you get the idea!!! The best thing I have done for myself is talk to my MD about it, we went thru 3 anti-depressants before finding the right fit for me. But now that we are there, and have the right dose...I can't imagine my life without it. I also know when it is time to go and talk with my therapist. Sometimes I can go weeks, other times not so long. I also know my symptoms become exacerbated when the weather is crappy. I go INSANE when it is gloomy for more than 3 days in a row. I become very emotional and feel encaged. I am a sunshine kinda gal!!

Anywho...no news in my sitch! Tried to text the H over the weekend, he didn't return either of the texts....frustrating...very frustrating.

Take care,
Christa
