Queenbug, I just saw this. Thank you for sharing your story with us. That took great strength. I am inspired. You have been through so much, yet have emerged a stronger, and more loving person. Please see yourself the way we do. You are a remarkable woman, a wonderful mother, and obviously a good friend, who has suffered incredible difficulties and betrayals. Infidelity hurts. Especially with a good friend. That's a double betrayal, and I'm sure you felt like your heart had been put through a blender. And then trying to take your kids, well, there are no words. It's not surprising that you ended up in abusive relationships after that experience. Your self-esteem was damaged to its core. That takes some time to heal, but I can hear in your post, that you are getting there.
As K9 said...you are TOO GOOD for alcohol. xx. Holding your hand through all of this. Stay strong.

Hi, Queenbug -
Thanks for sharing your story. You mention that you work with kids and would never beat them up the way you beat yourself up. I am seeing a private therapist and that is one thing we have been working on. Why would you talk to yourself in such a negative way when you would NEVER do that with someone else? Be kind. You're welcome to me in the nest is what has given me courage to try to be honest and open in my posts. Thanks.

Pav...you are so welcome....what is so great here is realising that you are not alone and there is a 'way out'....you are quite right....we do need to work out why we can be so unkind to ourselves. Hope that you are ok. I'm back at work so struggle to catch up with the newbies nest....but do post on some slower ones so don't think I've disappeared : ))....big love xx...peace and quiet....and a cup of tea.....heaven:h

Hya Moss....I'm still here...went back to work on Monday and the hours and stress just swallows me up...by the time I sit down at night...I drop off! Had a bit of a rubbish one too as I found a mole on one breast had changed and developed a lump and when I went to GP things happened really quickly and I was in having bits cut away etc for analysis. Was fine until that evening and then freaked a bit....drank a few glasses of wine but then tipped half bottle away....not the way to handle it all I know but old habits and all that. Upshot is waiting for results and trying not to drink any more : )).....ho hum. How are you doing? I have posted quickly on the daisychain and tried to keep up with that one...but didn't see you there. Big Love xx...peace and quiet....and a cup of tea.....heaven:h

Popping in to say hello Queenie and sorry to hear about the lump discovery. I'm sure the uncertainty is scary. Try to stay in the now and not fixate on a projected outcome. The stress will not do you any good. Peace and strength to you.:lPsalms 119:45

Oh my, Queenie, so sorry to hear this. I can only imagine how distressed you must be right now. Sending huge hugs and prayers. But great job on dumping the rest of the wine! Not sure I would have been that strong. I'm inspired. Hang in there and stay positive. xx
