Trying to cope with H, IA/EA (was Newbie-1st post)

[hoosiermama]

a year after that low point for me, I once again feel joy. I once again like myself, I am once again a good mother. I am divorced and I didn't want to be, and my financial status will probably never be comfortable. but I have a life again, and I am making it and finding reasons to get up in the morning where I least expected them. and I know myself, and I accept that I am not perfect but I am pretty dang okay. it does get better, I promise you that. the only way out of this pit is through it--that's a truth you'll hear from everyone who's been here. and the other side is infinitely more beautiful than anything you can imagine tonite.

Thank you Hoosier. I will try to hang on to the hope that the other side will be better. I am giving my pain to God tonight for in Him I shall find comfort.

if you can surrender it to God, so much the better. that is incredibly helpful; even just expressing that you WANT to do that can get you there. sleep wherever you feel most comfortable. take care of yourself, don't worry the effect it has on H tonite. take a sedative if you need to. you need a good night's sleep; your perspective will be much different if you can manage that.
