fm,
Ramble away. But you're not just rambling to yourself; you're rambling to all of us. And we each benefit in some way from others' venting on this site.

Today I just feel like giving up.

I don't blame you. We've all been there multiple times. Know the terrain quite well by now, myself. Shake it off or indulge in it, feel it for a time, pity-party away and then get back on track!

You win H. You have your home, your freedom, your sex life, your image,

But no dignity, integrity or decency on that list. Hmm... That must be what you brought into the equation.

My new life is uncomfortable, lonely, desolate, and confusing.

Oh, God, do I hear this! But it's not your life that is so. It's your current life situation. Not your life. Keep 'em separate in your mind. Because they are.

I still have the compass but I've lost the map.

And did I need to hear this, today! Perfect! This goes into my uplifting/insightful quotes book! Might even be bedroom mirror or refrigerator material. Love it.. Thank you.

Also,

The Journey From Abandonment To Healing by Susan Anderson. Hoosiermama recommended it and I got it. It is really good. Very helpful and hopeful.

Hang in there today.
