Cat - Thank you. You are right, GALng is definitely for me and feel really good and enjoy myself more when I GAL.
One11 - You were not rambling. Actually, you pointed out something about false recovery of depression. The highs and lows are dramatic and as you saw, my H will have to seek help on his own, but when he is ready, I will be supportive.
Things have been good over the last few days. I have been "hearing" and not just "listening" to what my H says. He was talking about his day at work and I know that he is under huge pressure at work. He told me yesterday morning that if he comes home sad or depressed, that he hopes that I comfort him. It was shocking, but this time I heard him. I always considered my H a strong man with pride and didn't think he needed to be comforted, but he asked my to be supportive. Everything I have read on MLC or depression indicates that they crave attention, interaction, and appreciation.
I have listened, heard, and responded accordingly and will continue to do so.
Happy Wednesday..
DU
