[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 72509, member: 2315"] Thank you Barbara. I think the work has only just begun. But this time I am hoping difficult child will do his part. husband has such a defeatist attitude I told him today that if he cannot be positive on the surface he may make difficult child feel like "why bother". I told husband that I didn't want any self fulfilling prophesies. I said he was allowed to have thise feelins and to protect is heart but not to be negative around me because he will bring me down and not to be negative around difficult child because difficult child is astute enough to to pickup on it. I said that difficult child needs to feel like we are behind him. I suggested husband go back on his antidepressant as a preventitive. I felt that was a reasonable request given husband's past history but he is in the arrogant "I don't need that, I don't like the way it made me feel, I don't think it works anyway" mode. Even thought everyone has told him how much better he did while on it. ARRRRRRRRRG! So I read husband the riot act also and told him that I would not go through another one of his boughts of infidelity due to his depression ever again and that if he didn't take the medications and he did go to that dark place again I would leave for good. And I will. I am a different person now. I come first. In addition difficult child called and he didn't know about the release so I told him that it is going to happen soon but that I wasn't going to tell him the day or time so that he wouldn't get all worked up if it didn't happen as planned. I said that he would know when it happened. He laughed and said "yeah". I also told him not to tell anyone because they tend to tease alot when someone is on short time and that I didn't want him to blow it. I hope he listens to me and keeps mum. I'm going to be on pins and needles until he is safetly turned over to the home. =RM [/QUOTE]
