Not having a R does not mean your life is on hold! I have a good job where I help people (which I like most days), I like the co-workers I work with, I'm involved in numerous activities at my church, I have interests outside of DB posting (really, I do!), I have good friends and family, my kids are incredible and I have a good R with their mother. What's the problem, besides a lack of a female R? Yes, sometimes I feel lonely, sometimes I feel depressed and sometimes I grieve the loss of my M but on the whole I'm a fairly happy guy despite the Adrenal Fatigue, which I continue to fight. I tend to believe the AF came from the stress of the last five years of my marriage, which was incredibly difficult, and then transitioning to being separated. We're talking almost eight years of pretty high level stress, so I think I've done pretty damn well considering!
