I've been having chest pains as well. I play basketball and weigh what I did in college so I shouldn't be having them. The stress and anxiety is amazing.

The anxiety sucks. I still get that feeling sometimes when I look at my phone and see X's number. And yes, sharing kids makes it so much worse.....I cannot just cut free of X completely because of the kids.

Why is it that after I have decided to put my sitch worries away in a box for now, I'm having nightmares of stbx and our cat (that is staying with him) every night?
Sorry about that. I know I was super pissed when I had dreams like that. How dare he interrupt my beauty sleep!! Just try to shake it off and move on with the day.

I make use of anti-a meds that the doc prescribed. I will be working more on "mindfulness sitting" (basically meditation) and hopefully that will help, too.
Keep breathing, is what they all advise.
I can't even imagine how all of you with kids manage to keep it together. Totally amazing.

I need to forgive. I don't want to carry that load anymore. I thought I've forgiven, but my threads prove the opposite. I don't know how to do it. There was a thread on forgiveness somewhere, but I cannot find it.
I feel again that I need to sue him for illegal eviction. I wasn't going to do it, because it will cost me a lot of money and effort, and there's no tangible benefit for me as a result. I won't get paid if I win.
But I feel like I'm not standing up for myself and letting it slide. Plus it sets up a bad example for other men. They will know they will get away with it, so they would do it more eagerly.
Sometimes keeping more $$ doesn't equal doing the best for yourself. Something to think about.
