Hi Saron how did you get on at therapy?I hope all is well.Boy do i have some good news I played Netball last night 2 games of indoor for the first time in 5 months i was driving there and almost talked myself out of going but i knew the girls would just come get me and drag me there anyway so i went and i was extremely nervous but i did it!!!Im a tad on the sore side today though.Couldnt wait to share that news with you.I hope your days are getting better too.Gabbi.
Sharon my heart goes out to you,every post you write reminds me of something that i have or am currently going through.especially the not wanting to cry in therapy i had an incident just last week when i started crying and i felt humiliated that i did that i kept apologising and i felt so weak.
Can anyone go with you when you try the public transport i know when i do things that are scary for me it helps somewhat to have someone that i trust 110% with me.I know just how scary it is but i know you can do it :)
I dont know if theres a way to make the transition back into working any easier i havnt had to deal with that yet so let me know if theres anything i can help you with.
I usually play GA but i have gone into GS for a little while till i get comfortable with all the body sensations i feel.What position do you play?Talk to you soon.Gabbi.
Hi everyone i just would like to know how everyone deals with their anger for instance sometimes i lash out and carry on like a child does when they have a temper tantrum other times i keep it all bottled inside for ages then it will take the slightest thing and it sets me off in a rage.I would like to get this under control and need some advice.Thanks.Gabbi.
Hi Sharon how did you go playing netball?I hope you did great its a big step to take when you have panic/anxiety/depression.I am glad i started playing again im still scared to go and scared while im there but i think it will get easier in time im hoping it does anyhow.2 elbow surgeries sounds painful what happened there?
Things with my husband have gone downhill again he has become quite abusive toward me these days alot has gone on the past couple of days which isnt helping my anxiety and depression i see my psychologist Monday i think i need some reassurance that its not my fault i wish i was a stronger person.Im trying to shield my children from all thats going on pretending that im ok my husband dosnt ever spend any time with them so they dont notice that he works more and is hardly ever here anymore anyhow enough about my pathetic existance i hope you and your family are well.Gabbi.
Moth please dont feel unworthy it really dosnt matter about your lifes circumstances depression dosnt descriminate i have an uncle who has everything money can buy has had a cushiony life no real dramas and he suffers terribly from depression so it dosnt matter who you are it just happens.I always compare myself with others and of coarse i have such high expectatoins of myself that i can barely reach so it always makes me feel worse.My psychologist has told me i need to lower my expectations of myself but how do you do that?Anyhow just wanted you to know we`are here for you we all understand how you feel dont be afraid to post.Gabbi.
Hey Kat dont beat yourself up your husband is willing to help you get help for this so i dont think hes going anywhere.I agree with moth i think maybe your testing his love for you i know thats exactly what i did when i was first diagnosed i pushed and pushed him away and if he had of left i could of said see i told you so but he never(not nescessarily a good thing now though).I do know that drinking dosnt help i did that too and truly it makes it so much worse please get in and see a doctor they will help decide the best treatment for you.Just remember you are not alone.Hugs.Gabbi.
As with Liz this is a very sore subject with me also i dont want this to sound nasty either and each to there own but when she kissed you and asked you to take her to bed instead of saying you didnt want to ruin the friendship why not say."im a married man" sort out the issues with your wife and go from there dont look for happiness outside the marriage very rarely does anything good come out of that.Gabbi.
Way to go Sharon thats fantastic.I was petrified driving to netball also but once you get there and get going you just enjoy the moment i got quite nervous when i felt my heart pounding but kept telling myself its normal im fine and i was :)I look forward to going again this week still a bit scared though but i know i'll be fine.
I had a bit of a breakthrough with my husband yesterday he acknowledged for the first time ever that he has been verbally abusive and i know that was hard for him to do (not making excuses for him)I have accepted that he has his own demons and that its not my fault and i refuse to let him bring me down.If thats the path he chooses to take hes going alone.I feel so much stronger today i hope this attitude stays with me im enjoying the confidence i am feeling.I hope you are well.Gabbi.
Hi powysbiker,
If you are unhappy in your marriage why do you stay?I am also in an unhappy marriage and stay because im petrified of being a single parent to my 4 young children we have a comfortable
lifestyle if i were to leave i would struggle.I understand how easy it must have been to fall in'lust'with this woman when you dont feel loved by your wife but turning outside the marriage only makes matters worse as youve found out the hard way.Sort something out with your wife whether you stay with her or leave you have to be happy obviously at the moment you arnt happy and if you do nothing about it nothing will get done.Gabbi.
