Job / DnJ and for all those that have supported others.
I don't know how you do it. Offer so much support to those in need. Not only for the support but also the spot on advice that helps so many people manage their emotions, thoughts and expectations. I can't imagine the amount of money spent on therapy within the mlc world and yet people like you probably understand this world and provide better feedback than any therapists could. For that I thank you.
I have struggled this past year and my situation is very mild compared to others. It is tough living with someone that flicked a switch after 20 years together and treats you like an enemy, friend, stranger etc. but my story is nothing compared to others. I know my wife is trying to reconnect and figure herself out. I try to stand back and watch from a distance (same room, 2 feet away on couch, dinner table, driver seat etc.) I have been GAL with working out, construction etc. The best therapy has actually been the hands on construction, I love it. I have read that the later stages are tough and slow. You can see them but they are not fully there, I totally get this. I may not even be in the later stages which is scary too.
