New and Sad

[In Limbo]

N,

Crying at first is good and normal. I cried so much sometimes I didn't know how there could still be tears. As time goes on you can focus on trying to reduce the amount of time you spend crying, maybe even set up a time each day to reflect and let your feelings out. I've found it odd what can trigger the emotions, like you said with the truck exhaust. The best thing you can do is get busy with your girls and doing things for yourself. If you're anything like a lot of moms, you've probably neglected your social needs and now is the time to try to change that. Believe me, I know it's easier said than done. I found making a list of goals to be helpful. Then even when I've had a bad day, I can go back and see that I have accomplished something recently. Hang in there and keep coming back. This place is addictive, but ever so helpful to survival and standing for your marriage. Take care!
