Too little, Too late.

Hi Purgatory, your situation sounds similar to mine in a lot of ways. I too was angry and not pleasant to come home to. Unlike you I was not suffering from post-pardum depression I was just incredibly unhappy with myself and had never dealt with all the stuff in my past.

I am very sorry that on top of everything else you are having some pretty serious health issues. I know that it is easy for me to tell you that you really need to try to take care of yourself right now, but in all honesty you do. If you don't have the strength to do it for you than do it for your kids because they need you to be healthy for them.

I haven't figured out this whole detachment thing either. I think if we were able to figure it out and provide a step by step guide we would be richer than Oprah and be able to take GALing to a whole new level

I really hope that you are able to find something that helps reduce your stress and anxiety!! Posting on this board and knowing that I am not alone has helped to reduce some of the anxiety for me.

I am also trying to keep myself in the moment so that I am not constantly worrying about the future (I'm a worry wart, what can I say?). Focusing on the hear and now has helped relieve some of my stress and anxiety as well. Don't get me wrong I am about as far away from becoming the Dali Lama as I am to figuring out how to detach, but it is something I am working on so that I become healthier.

Anyway, sorry I don't have any real words of wisdom for you, but I hope you are able to figure out what is going on with your heart and that you are doing ok.

Take Care
