Hi Patrick

I wrote every hateful thing my H said to me on a piece of paper and burned it-I did this every night for about 2 months I think- it's amazing the strength I got from those flames.

If you can speak to a therapist-I know in the UK we have a charity organisation called Samaritians-it's free and confidential-it's good to talk to some-one apart from family and friends.

For anger management try running or a boxing class.

My heart goes out to you because it's difficult to GAL or do 180's when every thing you hold dear is in freefall.

When I was in the worst of it I tried to do one of the following every day

laugh with the children-soak in the sound of their laughter
walk the beach-watch the sunset/sun rise
count stars
go to church

these are the constant things in our life - when the rest is slipping through your fingers they will help ground you.

What are your constants?

I hope your day does well
