[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 724914, member: 19522"] BBU, I am sorry for the hurt and pain you are going through. This is unacceptable. If your wife cannot acknowledge a need for communication, isn't willing to go to counseling to try and work things out, what can you do? Something comes to mind that I write over and over and that is [I]shift your focus[/I]. We can't control or change another person, but we do have control over ourselves. While you are treading these difficult waters, try to find ways to build yourself up. It is hard to make any kind of decision when you feel beaten down. When faced with difficulties in life, we are severely tested and sometimes lose parts of ourselves in the maelstrom. The dust has settled, but you are still in a tough situation. Down the Rabbit Hole is an expression often used on CD. The swirly whirly when life just is so........confusing. Ugh. "Where are you in all of this?" I have asked myself many, many times. In the wake of my two d cs descent into addiction, hubs illness (he became withdrawn and reclusive), and his passing, I felt lost in the heavy dark cloud and overwhelming grief of it. I lost my "muchness". [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haiF5DOWwRo"]"Alice In Wonderland" (You've Lost Your Muchness Scene)[/URL] I am working hard at rebuilding myself. You can too. Finding your "muchness" will help you stand from a firmer foundation, whatever your decision is. Nothing has to be done right this minute. Life is short, but there is time to think things through. Building yourself up, will help you tremendously. The answers will come. You are much "muchier" than you realize. You matter. (((HUGS))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
