LT great to hear from you. Yes it is sad that he thought this would be a help to him. I'm hoping he restarts his depression meds and continues to work through his issues. I get the sense that he's stuck though- he can't quite jump the hurdle to deal with all of his childhood history and pain as well as the wounds throughout adulthood. I really do wish him peace.
As for me I feel pretty good. I had really lost myself in the last 6-8 years when things in our marriage were getting worse and worse. I realize now how much I allowed in terms of his behavior, all in the name of trying to be a people pleaser and people saver. Now I set healthier boundaries. But I stil have to be mindful of my old tendencies. Two years ago to now though? World of difference!!
