This is DB Triage. Must do. First. Now.

Do not contact. Do not pursue. Do not plead, say I love you, flowers, etc. even if she contacts you. Use this time for you.

Depression? Check out the book The Ultramind Solution. It turned it around for me & Dr. is taking me off meds.

Givingitmyall has a similar situation as does lookingforhelp. And me. I don't know how to put a link here, so look at Gardener, Jumping in (first post) 6/03/09.

Keep writing, journaling, asking questions before you take actions you're not sure of.

And, yes, you have to maintain more discipline and avoid making even a phone call. Trust me. Trust us.
"Throw me a bone, here..." You may be the first to ask us to throw you a bone. Usually, that's a standard line we all give our spouses when we are repulsively and unattractively in our panic/pleading stage/ smile

Small steps. In order for it to have any chance of being better, you have to be better.



I give this vote a 100% strong second. You first.

And also seconding "Ultramind". Don't dump your meds until you've fallowed all this advice for a long time....and do it as shown in the book.


On a side note....it's wehre I am. Similar sound advice: Joel Furman, the skinny bitch books, and though not the exact same: diane schwarzbein, awesome hormone science in her books....I personal recommend her vegetarian cook book as well.
