Tristan,

I can only speak for two types of workshops. The ones we went to when we were first married, which were tune ups for happy couples. We loved them! They were like mini-honeymoons.

Then Retrovaille - which was for a very diff situation. I am not familiar with the program you attended but glanced at the site. Seems to me, if you went and found it helpful or powerful but did not follow thru, well....you do have to follow thru or NO program will change your M for long. The "honeymoon" effect only lasts so long and then the work starts so you need the tools they provide, and you need to use them and use them until they're 2nd nature.

For us, it was Retrovaille. But whichever you attend, or both, follow thru with it.

We missed a follow up session when mil was visiting (she has terminal cancer and she required 24/7 focussed attention) and it was very stressful for me and h and our kids, but obviously the time with her was valuable and necessary. Don't mean to complain but combining her visit with missing a session right after, was bad for us. It showed. But we saw that, and we learned. We really DO have to keep at it and follow thru but my God, the rewards are pretty impressive.

That's all I can say for it. You seem understandably hesitant to jump right back into your m, but we all know you love her and it seems she's trying to stay out of the fog.

So, why not go to something like Retrovaille or what you attended before if you think this time you guys will keep at it? I don't see how it can hurt. Good luck, you deserve this.
