That sounds extremely challenging Shellyt.

It has been a while since you posted last. How are you feeling today?

Honestly, I am burying these feelings and trying to stay as busy as possible.

Hi Shellyt,

I am so sorry to hear what you have been going through. It sounds like you are in so much pain. I can hear you are doing your best to take care of your home, children and pets. How are you taking are of yourself now? What have you been doing to help yourself get through this?

I have been dealing with anxiety and depression for as long as I can remember, I have been treated and started to feel better, only to be brought to my knees by life again. This current battle has been going on for a little over a year, I am on a waiting list for a doctor, take all my meds but still can not climb out of my pit of despair. A little over 3 weeks ago I found out that my husband has been having an affair for about a year. I am hurting like I never thought possible right now. I can see no end to this pain and feel like I will never be the same. I really hope something in this program can help relieve some of the agony I am in every day. Some days I have 12 hour panic attacks! I can't sleep because I can't stop thinking. I can't concentrate at work. My poor children...I don't even know where to begin with my children. Through the years I have pushed away pretty much everyone in my life, I don't have any sort of social network to depend on or anyone I really trust to talk to, so I go to work, try my best to take care of the kids, house and dogs and just keep carrying on, but it is an uphill battle that some days doesn't even seem worth it.
