At the beginning of my husbands crisis I couldnt read anything, which up to that point in my life was a big way I relaxed. I started going to yoga more and more instead. It was kind of a pain and a financial burden doing yoga instead of reading cause also with 2 young kids I had to ask my mom babysit.
My mom did not want to babysit while I did yoga, she thought it was frivolous. But taking care of me was the best thing I could do for myself during that "frozen" period.
Wow, I remember it well - almost like you are moving in molasses.
I also wrote and checked these boards non stop and found Alanon meetings, which I love love love.
I know how hard it is but dont forget to count your blessings
