After finding some peace with myself & my situation over the Christmas & New Year period I am now really struggling with this again over the last few days since receiving the D papers. It is such a difficult pill to swallow.

I can think I am doing alright one minute and then the next minute I get a horrible sinking feeling & a knot in my stomach. I just keep cycling through this each day. I went to bed feeling good & woke up feeling terrible.

I also can't help thinking that all of this stress & heartache could be avoided if my wife would just give our marriage a chance & can't understand why she doesn't feel this would be the easiest option. I am constantly fighting the urge to try speak to her & get this across to her.
