JKS sending you hugs and strength. You can get through this.

It's awful to feel alone but you've got to find what you need inside yourself. You can't get that caring and support from H right now, and as hard as it hurts it will be good for you to learn to take that care of yourself.

What do you do when you're extremely stressed out? Something relaxing or physical exertion? I'm doing combinations of those things - planning fun events to look forward to, getting exercise even when I really don't feel like it. More sleep? Healthy food? Manicure? How about meditation tapes or yoga?

You've got to do it, because H is not going to be shaken out of his foolheadedness out of concern that you fainted. And who knows what he's said to his family to get them to accept ow sitting on their couch? It -censored- but you've got to be your own support, for you and so you can be there for your kids.

I wish I could help you more. (((hugs JKS)))
