learn2live Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 The sadness and depression keep sneaking into my life. How long does this go on for? The ups and downs are making me think about medication. Why is it so hard to deal with the fact that she loves me, but is not in love with me after almost 5 years? Is it because I'm approaching 30 and instead of starting a family I'm now two steps back from where I was?(i.e. single with no fam) And the fact thats its been raining for 3 straight days!! Any things out there that people do that make the pain ease a little? I'm staying active and hanging out with friends, going to see a therapist by myself and with my seperated wife. help if you can.
NSBR Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 I remember being pretty much a basket case after 3 months. I'm now about 8 months in and while I'm not 'there' yet, I feel that things are getting a little bit better each day and definitely better than they were at the three month point. You're doing the right thing by getting out and doing things. Therapy is also a great thing. Keep it up. You'll start to feel better about yourself and realize that you have a lot to offer someone again one day! Work towards getting to that point where you can look in the mirror and feel good about who you are, and feel that you can live your life on your own without being dependent on someone else. As Gunny once said, if you can survive having your heart pulled out of your chest and shown to you in the face, you will come out a better man in the end!
