1974 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 A few days ago my wife of 23 years told me that she didn't love me anymore. I have been her carer for at least 10 of those years due to varying mental health problems but then she got professional help and she just changed around this time. I knew things weren't great but it still devastated me when she told me it was over. It hurt me so much I took a drugs overdose of 64 tablets....the only reason I called for help was a text from my son telling me he loved me. I now hate the fact I didn't go through with killing myself. My wife is staying until she knows I am better as she is just a beautiful person, even though she has broken my life.i have sobbed for the last 4 days solid and I really don't want to live anymore.
Clarence_Boddicker Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Your wife leaving did not break your life. You should have a reason to live, other than because of another person. How did things get that way? What did you do with your life before you met your wife?
foolinlove79 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Everyone deals with a bu differently. I am cconvinced some love more then others and hurt more then others. My bu devastated me even though i know the rs wasnt good. I was 6 years so i can only imagine what a bu of an rs of that length is like. Please do not harm yourself again over this. Your son needs you. You dont want to hear this but in time you get to a new normal. You build a new life. It is slow going and hurts. This could be an opportunity for you to get to know yourself as a person outside the rs. It must of been a very long time since you had the time to focus on you. Hope you take care...one day at a time.
Chi townD Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Go to the hospital. You need to be evaluated better than what you can hope to find in an advice forum. I'm being completely serious here. You need help and a lot more than from the woman that just broke your heart. Go to the ER and get evaluated.
Amas5750 Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Hi. I want you to tell us about your support system. Who do you have in your life? Your son? Who else? There has to be some thing or some one that gives you a glimmer of "just hold on". I have felt like I cannot deal/continue too. You are not alone with these feelings. No matter how wretched and deeply dispairing, you are not the only one. I hope this helps you just a smidge. I agree wholeheartedly with a previous poster: you need serious professional help right now. Bight the ****ig bullet and get some serious help
