Newbies Nest
It's a good morning. I went to bed last night, and realized I was happy because I wasn't buzzed. Awoke this a.m. feeling good, and mildly optimistic about my life.
Dila> you with me on Day 2?
Petrel and lost> So we're in marriage dissolution together.... Any advice is welcome. I cleaned my apt, and watched the World Cup yesterday, hoping to be diverted from my funk. Both helped my mood, but the heaviness lingered. I think I know what I want now, and I don't know that it's possible. I want it both ways: to end my marriage, yet be friends. I thought that was what we agreed to accomplish through counseling, but my husband keeps throwing curve balls. Regardless, AL won't help with clear thinking or dealing with grief. As Byrdie says, we have to clean up our own houses to be able to deal with the rest of life.
j-vo>Your husband is a keeper. He sounds so loving and supportive. I'm glad you made it through a tough weekend.
Lost> I would never tell you to stfu. No one will. We all do. Just because you are an alcoholic doesn't me you don't have wisdom to share. Also, keep us informed about your tapering progress, and how you're feeling.
Wag>When my maternal grandmother died, our family began to disintegrate, as Lost pointed out. The disintegration continued after my mother had her strokes. It was a domino effect, but my siblings and I are working hard to maintain our relationship. I hope you can do the same with your family. I'm sure we left out someone in the communicating of our loss, but it wasn't intentional. Don't nurse the hurt, and don't drink to it. I'm counting on you.
Cherokeer>You're asking all the right questions. I can tell you're determined as hell. Keep it up.
Hi, Pav, Rahul, Lav, Byrdie, Cupcake, Eloise, and everyone else. Sure want to hear from DD. Where's Jane?
