About Me
I have 2 beautiful boys and a husband who has admitted that he hasn't loved me in more than 3 years. Hoping to work on me this year and my family relationships. I am realizing that I can only be the best mom to my kids by fixing my issues or at least try to work on them!
Interests
Scrapbooking, playing and going to playdates with my kids, cooking, taking pictures.

I understand how difficult things are for you, my kids are 10, 8, 5 .. My ex travelled for work so I was alone with them a lot when they were young and now that we are divorced, I am basically raising them alone. Hang in there... it has to get better

Support Groups
Close Psoriasis
Affected Areas: Psoriasis of the SkinI have psoriasis, thought I had dandruff then wasn't sure cause shampoos wouldn't help.
Treatments
- Betamethasone (Topical) Working / Worked
- Worked great in the summer but taking much longer to clear up the symptoms now that it's winter I'm hoping.
- Coal Tar Working / Worked
- I really like this, and though I still get patches on my head as long as I don't scratch them I don't flake.
- Hydrocortisone Not Working
- Didn't do a thing!
Close Diets & Weight Maintenance
I had 2 kids within 18 months and I guess it just kind of took a toll on my body. Have been struggling to lose this last 20 pounds for about 6 months now. Joined WW but quit cause I had no way to bring both kids and actually listen to the meeting and kind of fell off the wagon. I'm starting back up again, but doing it on my own as well w/o help of meetings so thought this could give me a bit more support!
Treatments
- Weight Watchers Working / Worked
- It worked great when I stuck with it! Hope it does this time around!
Open Family Issues
Have a brother who wants to sleep with me, father who acts like it's not an issue and mother who takes brothers side always and acts like I'm the bad guy for not wanting to be around him.
Treatments
Open Sexual Abuse
Brother wanted to sleep with me, was a peeping tom and I didn't know till he made an advance. This was 6 years ago and I'm still dealing with this crap.
Treatments
Open Parenting Toddlers (1-3)
I am a SAHM to 2 boys, Sutter age 2 and Cole 9 months. Sutter goes to preschool 2 full days a week and the rest of the time we spend trying to get to play dates with other moms. (I help run a moms group.) Hoping spring comes quick though as the winter blues seem to be getting us all down!
Treatments
- Education (School) Working / Worked
- Sutter has been in school 2 full days a week since September. He's really thriving there and absolutely loves it!
- Patience Working / Worked
- I'm much more patient than my hubby which is something we often argue about. I really try my best but of course there are days where I just lose it and hopefully a site like this could help me.
- Positive Reinforcement Working / Worked
- Sutter is potty training and we are using the prize method each time he goes on it. Seems to be working really well. I am extremely supportive of all the good they each day and let them know it by cheering them on, giving kisses and hugs.
Open Healthy Relationships
My husband of close to 6 years told me he hasn't been in love with me for more than 3 years. We've been together for close to 15 years and have 2 beautiful boys, 2 and 1/2 and 1. I feel as if I've been hit by a ton of bricks and completely blindsided. I knew we had problems but never dreamed he hadn't been in love with me.
Open Breakups & Divorce
Been married almost 6 years, together for 15, 2 boys, 2 1/2 and 1. Husband told me he hasn't been in love for more than 3 years and left last week.
Treatments
- Couples Counseling Too Soon to Tell
- He's the one who suggested it. Good sign I hope. We start Wednesday.
- Leave Not Working
- My husband left, but he still comes home each night to see the kids. I just cry and cry when he leaves.
- Music Somewhat Helpful
- I'm a music junkie. Been driving around with my Depresso Mix on my IPod.
- Reading Too Soon to Tell
- Started reading, Stop Walking on Eggshells, about loving someone with Borderline Personality Disorder, which I believe my husband may have.
- Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
- His whole family is on my side and have been wonderful to me. My family is supportive as well, but I'm not close with them. My friends have been amazing!
- Talking Somewhat Helpful
- Thank God I have great friends who will just listen to me cry, scream and unravel.
