With Thanksgiving over and my wedding anniversary approaching (Friday November 30th) I am a total mess. We would have been married 38 years! I decided to pack up and move. To where? I wasn't sure! All I knew was I had to get away. Try to out run this awful pain and depression that is consuming me. Tears and more tears every day. No one understands. I thought I had myself under control but was blindsides and haven't been able to recover since. I did however make an appointment with a physician who took care of my husband and agreed to be my primary physician. (Remember we moved to Florida in March and my husband became ill). Well I finally made the appointment for Friday. So to get back to me decision of moving I was trying to decide where to go when it hit me like a ton of bricks. Moving is not the answer. I am trying to find happiness and will never find it until I find peace and happiness within my own heart. I decided to apply myself to concentrating on my life now, here and now! I sure hope that is what I am suppose to be doing cause I can't tumble and fall again. I am at the lowest of low right now and today I am trying to climb out of this big hole I am in. I know I have to push forward and begin living again. I know this and it is harder than I had ever thought it to be. So from this moment I hope to be in a better state of mind and plunge forward. Who knows what lies ahead of me but I think I need to do something. I just can not continue heading down this path for my sake and my two daughters. Maybe tomorrow I will still be saying this or perhaps doing something about this. God give me strength!

It is true - you can't out run this. You can move anywhere in the world and it won't ease the pain. Your happiness is inside you. From what I understand it takes time to find.

For myself I feel like I don't have the time to look. Every time I take a step forward I get pushed back. But we have to keep trying right?

I go to church almost everyday and ask God for the same - strength!

May you find your happiness and begin living again.

Hi Pamela, try, really try just to handle one day at a time...get up, shower/bath, make tea etc, go through the motions, pray, pray, pray, speak to the Lord, cry for help, don't stress yourself extra by thinking you *must* move forward etc. Praying for you, and sending love, xxx

Addie replied to Kali's discussion It was not supposed to be like this in the group Being the Other Woman/Other Man
"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
