Sounds like you have made some good progress for yourself the past little while. Great job! Stay strong and keep your head up!
This is a very hard thing to do. I have only been at this for 3 months. You have been at it 16 months. Others have been at it for many years. It truly is a marathon, we will all help each other get to the finish line.
No two circumstances are the same, but they all have similar components. I went back and read your sitch; I am a 20+ year military guy still on active duty so I certainly have an idea how difficult life has been for you and your family! Everyone says retirement is the good life, and perhaps it is, but it can certainly trigger a sense of loss in those who have known nothing else for 20+ years. It is something I have become much more conscious of lately, as I approach retirement from the service. It is in no way an excuse for his behavior, just as my W doesn't have any excuses for her behavior. Thanks for your service, the spouse at home serves just as much as the active duty member...Keep on keep in' on friend!
