Agreed TVS, I see the same dynamic with W...the good thing is that the physical changes seem to be reversing a bit as W climbs out, though not 100%. It is interesting that the crisis amplified one of the things she was most afraid out..."losing" or the changing due to age of her looks. But that "younger" person comes through when she has those moments of peace, or laughter, etc.

I do know she has been, when in deep depression, avoiding pics of the kids and our old life, and the new/recent good times as well. But had been "documenting" her changes via pics of herself, so AJ is correct as well I think, just everyone plays it out differently, with different inner motivations.

Guess it goes to show that your inner state has a lot to do with your outer appearances.

Maybe that is why the GAL and PMA efforts help us...

Back to the garden for me now, gotta look younger and more attractive, don't ya know. Maybe I can get my cat to spray me again, need some giggles... lol... wink
