Well, my L is supposed to be a bulldog but he says there are not many maneuvers he can do with the laws in my state. I checked for second opinions as well and it seems like I am screwed. It is really demoralizing when I am the victim yet the laws treat you like a criminal.
I see WW every week but I avoid any type of contact with her whenever I can. Yesterday she had S11 ask me about a schedule that was sent to her. I had to tell S11 for her to check herself. If she does not want to be my wife, I should not have to act like her husband, right?
The Lexapro seems to help but still having night sweats. When I don't have S11 for the 50% of the time, I do have recurring moments of despair in my loneliness. However, I think it does help that downward spiral I used to have. I am able to break out of those thoughts and refocus on the present and what I enjoy, whether it's playing with S11 or planning our next outing. I do other activities that take my mind off of the D.
That is all I can do now, instead of focusing on the future.
