It's clichéd, but time really does help, so long as you put it to good use ;)<BR/><BR/>Wishing you all the best in all areas of your life.Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00727596416170770024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-37576763846979457862008-05-20T13:19:00.000-04:002008-05-20T13:19:00.000-04:00I agree -- you've done well!

When I broke up with an 8 year boyfriend, I spent months doing late night installations of the next version of the operating system (lots of machines, and everything ran more slowly back then). Using work as an opiate is not a bad thing, for a while. It allows time to work some of its healing.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, at some point you have to get one of you to move out. I knew I wouldn't be able to budge my hubby (more recently than the above incident) so I moved out myself last fall. We still see each other and talk, but I feel MUCH better with my own space and etc.<BR/><BR/>I also agree that meds are not a bad thing. They help me. :)<BR/><BR/>Hange in there; figure out what is the next logical step; work toward that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-79688146072873666622008-05-20T09:44:00.000-04:002008-05-20T09:44:00.000-04:00You've sounded so much more "up" lately, and I've ...You've sounded so much more "up" lately, and I've wondered if its just been because of the new job and those feelings would eventually level out if other things in your life didn't improve.<BR/><BR/>I hope that your offical separation happens soon. This "married but not really" situation you've been living in must be extremely difficult on both of you (and I'm sure your girls on some level can feel that things aren't right too).<BR/><BR/>Drunken Housewife is right: you've made some significant progress from when you started this blog. You can take pride in that.<BR/><BR/>Take care of yourself!Therese in Heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607519856275927706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-25042690676964111842008-05-20T07:20:00.000-04:002008-05-20T07:20:00.000-04:00New Beginnings, 2am...

NEW!<BR/><BR/>And I'll echo all that drunken housewife has said... you've made great progress and the only thing that can happen naturally is to keep moving foward. You can do it.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-87301215411459932672008-05-20T01:15:00.000-04:002008-05-20T01:15:00.000-04:00Regarding the first part of your post, "I have no ...Regarding the first part of your post, "I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a picture of a bunny with a pancake on its head." (You may imagine here my icon from LiveJournal.)<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you've resurfaced. Time to move things along in your personal life. Just think -- your personal life can be as new and improved as your professional life now is! I'd start in on building that social network ASAP (before your wife moves out). It takes time to make new friends. <BR/><BR/>Summer starts in only about a month. I hope your wife moves out reasonably soon -- but you might have to give her a little shove or two. Or move out yourself if she won't? Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-40107612018994961182008-05-19T23:10:00.000-04:002008-05-19T23:10:00.000-04:00Don't be hard on yourself, hon. Look at where you...Don't be hard on yourself, hon. Look at where you were at the beginning of the blog: stuck in a dead-end job at a failing company, no end of money woes, an unhappy marriage, and seeming to go nowhere. You've given your career a giant huge start, and now you're making more money and gaining all kinds of great new skills. <BR/><BR/>You can't fix everything at once. You deserve a lot of congratulations for fixing one big area of your life. You also worked super hard on your marriage before making the decision to end it. That was a lot of work. <BR/><BR/>Next comes building a social life for yourself. I think your idea of going on some meds for this next stage is very good. I was just discussing antidepressants with a friend yesterday, one who always seems so relaxed and calm and together, and surprise! Her meds help her be that way although there's a lot of stress in her life. They really help you from feeling the deep depths of depression and give you some energy to help you work on your problems. People have a false impression that they just drug you into accepting what's going on in your life, but I disagree.the Drunken Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14606104534453493304noreply@blogger.com
