I realize all are here to help, although a few may not have read the books. I have tried to help other in their struggle.
All situations are not the same and I realize there are stages. Not everyone is in the same stage. Your descriptions of WW and WAW are spot on for me. I have seen the demon. The W that only thinks and speaks in negatives. The completely out of character selfishness. Not so much this go-round but the last. I have read DR.
Things at my house are escalating fast and it is scary. I also know what doesn't work.
Things that I never realized before I have learned can affect my SITCH. D18 is leaving for college in Sept. D that she has cleaved to in the past. EXH of an old friend died last month. And I am still not sure if there is OM.
I have handled things very differently this time and I see results. I just don't know if the results are a good sign or temperature taking.
M 53 W 54, M since 98 D15, D19 8/2013 discovered EA, W maintained contact with OM until 10/14 7/2/17 W said she wanted S, 7/25/17 moved out of MBR 12/17 W says moving out 5/18, W still in home.
