WAW - Possible MLC I need help, WAWs advice III

[25yearsmlc]

Guys,

you sound so "well". Seriously. Not much to add. LD, I recall praying every night that HE would tell me what to do. Most of the time I got silence, which I took to mean, hang in there. But my behaviors and GAL began as well. Eventually, oh sooo slowly---dear God, I'm a better woman than I knew--things turned around.

They will for you as well, they already are. I LOVE That your wife (LD) was searching for money or cash or whatevs...for Christmas...very classy touch. She is close to bottoming out.

Are you so sure the kid won't be okay with the presents you got? We are getting a "big" present as s22 worked big time on h last night about a PS3...s22 always has persuasive arguments like "you NEED to get a blue ray anyhow, and THIS will ALSO play games and your kids will stay bonded (s22 lives on the other coast so his approach about keeping our children 'in touch' with each other always hits a nerve)....s22 should be a Lawyer, except we already have too many of those in the family. Can't believe it worked on H! He's flippin' going out to get one!!!
I wanted to do it, but thought we should agree...so, my secret plan has worked and h thinks it's his idea...brilliant!

Okay, so my youngest is getting several gifts of lesser value b/c she likes the number, frankly. ANd ultimately she cost a lot less than the "family gift" of the PS3...so I assume you are doing that LD. Something for the young one to play with and hopefully involve you. Some of the video games require a glass of wine or two to hold my interest. For one thing, I get killed off or crash in 10 seconds and lack the patience to learn the obstacles involved to "Win" the games...what's with a floating cherry and mushroom to give you "health points"? Who thought of this stuff?

Good luck guys you really sound so grounded right now and your w's need to see that. Stay calm, lose the anger in front of her and be there for your kids. Your w's sound ill, honestly. Maybe if your kids can view it that way, (unless this is just a culmination of years of weirdness growing) it'll help them feel less hurt.

There is such a thing as menopause that, (embarrassing as it is to admit for me and my feminist friends) can make you kind of crazy. HENCE THE NEED FOR MEDS at times like these. Geez, I recall my mom getting sweaty and hot a lot and then getting estrogen and being normal again. I think it was estrogen. (Or was it speed?
it was the late 60's....)
Merry Christmas!
