(((Sia))) Thank you for that. I feel sad when I think about my depressed little girl self too :-( I wish I could go back in time and protect her. You have to realize tho, I did not have a mom like you. You talk about your little girls and your love for them, and I just know you are going to protect them and create a wonderful life for them with or without your M intact! My mom struggled with her own depression and then dating life and she just could not see what I was going through. My dad was just trying to survive as a single parent working full time and he had come from a country/family that did not have as much divorce and where the women did a lot of the care taking and holding a household together. His love and devotion for me really is what got me through, I think. I don't think he was able to see my struggles though or even knew how to help me emotionally.

Nicole, I am glad you shared that. Perhaps kech did take her WH back in and she just does not want to post or think about it. We have no idea. I think one thing we can all agree on tho, is that if we don't really look inside ourselves and commit to positive changes, the old/bad habits resurface and become patterns. That is why we see repeats in people having As and leaving Ms again. They did not, or were not able to, have introspection and make the changes necessary.
