I'm moving my thread from newcomers because my sitch is closer to those on piecing. My old thread was titled "Help with depressed spouse" http://www.divorcebusting.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB24&Number=910481&page=3&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=31&fpart=1

Here's the breakdown
Me 33
H 34
No kids
Married 2 yrs, together 5

H has had chronic depression most of his life. Reached his breaking point this past fall and asked to separate to deal with problems. I agreed to give him space and we have been living in separate apts. since 12/04. Both H and I are committed to making R and M work. Possible EA with OW, co-worker. Recent new developments with that posted on old thread.

H and I had problems with addiction and avoidance. I had problems with alcohol and anorexia and H also is alcoholic. I have been sober for 4 yrs. and H stopped drinking in Dec. in order to appropriately deal with problems.

I would love for some Piecers to take a look at my sitch and give me some feedback. In general, I feel that the outlook is more positive on this thread than on newcomers. Also, H has insisted from the beginning that he wants to make our M work.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
