Profile Information
- About Me:
- I am 57 and suffer with mental illness. I have extreme anxiety and bouts of severe depression. I have two loving sons, Jeff and David. I do not work or even leave the house only when necessary but rarely. I have been separated from my husband for six years,but three,he lived with another woman and when she through him out, he still pursued her and she let him even though he was controlling and verbally abusive. I realize now when He came home it was not to love me but for convenience and because he worked out of state anyway and wouldn't have to spend much time with me. He knew I got a SSDI check and that left him free to gamble and carouse online dating for sex. I believe he still wanted his Ex but she did not want to play second. He liked her and her friends which I have none or few of and no life or close family or social life. I guess i only wanted him beside me and that was not enough for his need for excitement or action. I have no life now besides poverty, since he left nothing but a dilapidated high mortgaged house.Funny enough I can't get over losing him, even though he caused most of my low self esteem and emotional instability:(
- About my Loss:
- My husband was out of my life mostly for the last six years. He worked out of state in hotel rooms in hazard mitigation with FEMA. We were married 35 years although 3years separated and 3 years separated because of his work. He was short of breath for a year or so and didn't head anyone's efforts to get himself diagnosed. He came home Christmas 2013 and died suddenly with shortness of breath and cardiac arrest. we never got a reason after three weeks in autopsy, the result was never identified as to the cause of death. We did not have a memorial due to lack of monies and my severe reaction to his death and the same for his mother of 82. No one really knew for over a month. I have absolutely no future prospects on life and each day I sink deeper into the shade of gray isolation and a burden for my sons who thank god still live with me for now. My marriage was rocky and volital from it's beginning but I love my husband and miss him intensely.

My Fathers Loss
Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More
