Good luck with getting your life back on track. You have a plan, have set it in motion, and sounds like you’re well on your way to achieving those goals.

I should do the same. For the moment, I am trying to find “therapy” in the small things. I know it’s only a temporary fix, but it helps me hold onto my sanity while I figure out what to do next.

“before he’s had enough and gives up. There’s only so much a person can take and it’s really not fair to expect the world of one person. He’s only human. She needs to see that…”

Our “shes” are very similar. The worst thing I do is actually say it out loud (“what if you get tired of my bullshit and can’t take it any more?”), which only serves to frustrate him more. It’s like I can’t stop myself — I’m incapable of keeping my mouth shut, even though my brain is screaming at me to STOP.

I’m seeing my doctor this afternoon. I’m printing out some of the stuff I’ve written in the past little while as “proof” that something is off.

You’re not alone, dear heart. I’m always here if you need an ear.

I agree to print out it out and take it to the doctor. I’m hoping you can find something to help….. living sad and angry is no way to live.

I’ve been reading your blog for a while but never commented but today there were a couple of things I felt I needed to say. The first one is absolutely do not wait on the sleep study, I’d say 90% of my patients site depression and severe headaches as symptoms of their sleep apnea and they always feel much better when they are finally on the right therapy. A cpap is not going to fix everything but it does improve your quality of life. Its hard to get used to and its uncomfortable at first but please stick with it, it will get better. The second is that for me the asking for help was the biggest step in my recovery. I saw a therapist for a very long time and still keep in touch regularly because its not about a one time fix, its about a life time of change and no one and I mean NO ONE can do it alone. There is strength in numbers.

I’ve been following your blog for a while but haven’t commented until today. Today I am because I know what you’re going through. I may not be married w/kids, but the anger and depression I know all about. For me, I felt completely embarrassed talking to a doctor about going on anti-depressants, but once I took that leap, it’s one of the best things I’ve done. It’s very hard to get yourself out of it alone so I sincerely hope going to your doctors will help you out. From reading your blog, you seem like an amazing person that just needs a little help right now. Good Luck! I’m totally pulling for you!

I say print your entries and take them with you to your doctor. It can’t hurt, and may even help him to understand when you have trouble explaining.

My depression signal is that kind of out of body feeling you describe… I don’t really like this person, but she’s running my life. You need some help, either just in life with the kids and stuff or with medication or therapy or whatever your poison might be I’d print it because like Issa said, it can be hard to find the words in the moment.
