One month down, zero casualties

[RosaLinda]

I'm sorry you had to go thru that depression, uR, and am so grateful that you got help and no longer suffer from it. You are a very positive person, is that aspect of your personality new since you kicked depression? Or can a person be positive and depressed?

I'm glad you feel that Raine's H is moving slowly away from that horrible feeling Wonka. It does sound as if he is becoming more reasonable at times. I do remember your descriptions, in fact, I copied most of your posts on my phone When my H is doing something hurtful or off the wall, it helps me to be able to read over your writings. It gives me hope that someday he'll wake up from all of this. I don't think he'll remember a lot of it, as even now he does not believe the boys and me when we tell him things he's said or done. But if he loves me again when he's "cooked" I think I'll be able to bury all of those bad things in my heart, and not have to harp on them.

Besides doing a great job DBing with your H RAine, you are doing a great job DBing with your inlaws!!! I think your explanation of your H's problems to your MIL was perfect. And you're right, no one who has not been thru this could comprehend it, and it's better to leave people out of our lives and problems if possible.

Any more interesting conversations with your H? How much does your baby weigh now?
