oh my, I laughed when I read this...I know, not funny, that would mean I'm the old perfectly good Iphone...that will end up in the garbage lol....but seriously, I know what you mean...he is medicating himself with things that he thinks will make him happy.
Yesterday we went together "as a family" to an art show where D's work was featured, she won an award BTW :), and there was one piece of art that was about depression...H seemed to be really taken by the narrative when the artist was explaining about depression...I wonder if he ever realizes that's what he is dealing with...
Being - your H's "make feel good" bike has lost it's power...the "high" wears off, they abandon that toy and look for a new high....hopefully not OW...

Punking, I'm keeping all emails, business and personal...although where I live there is "no fault" divorce....but never know what I will need it for....
oh yes after the awards show H suggested that WE take D & her BF out...took them for drinks at Starbucks....sat and chatted for about an hour....I was animated, chatty, laughing with the kids...H was subdued, more just listening then participating...and I've noticed his stare on me more then once...D left with her BF and I drove H to this place. Interesting that he again wanted to go as a family...in one car...
