    About Me

    I am a Postal Clerk, work nights and work with my husband, or should I say my husband that left me. We had an age gap that I don't feel contributed to our demise. I am 12 years older than him. I am the youngest child with a large gap between my sister and I --she is 18 years older. I love West Virginia University Football and Basketball and am a season ticket holder. I pretty much grew up in a dysfunctional family and yearn to be needed and loved yet I can't get it right.

    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      Thought we were in love, perfect planning for many things in the future when March 3, 2007 he said he didn't know if he loved me anymore and it went so far down hill he left wtith the so called intention of working on it in late August...not what happened. He professes to hate me and the thing I could do to make him happy would be to die.

      Treatments

      Leave Somewhat Helpful
      Went for a week to North Carolina Outer Banks with my dog in January. I felt great that I could accomplish this on my own and I didn't just wish he was there. But I knew I had to come back to reality and it sucks.
      Music Not Working
      Everything reminds me of us or him or something we did or somewhere we went...you get the idea.
      Pets Working / Worked
      They love me unconditionally, they are always happy to see me and take time from my alone time. They need me.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Really though someone can only tell you so many times that it isn't you and you are a wonderful person that deserves better so much before it seems useless.
      Reading Somewhat Helpful
      I know what I should be doing but it just isn't that easy.
      Support from Friends & Family Not Working
      They only want me to be better. They care, they love me but they cannot replace what I so deparately miss.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      Feel better after venting but it lasts for just a bit. Then I just question everything I have said and done and feel like it is all my fault. Like I am not worthy of a loving relationship.
      Time Not Working
      For a bit I feel like I may make it and then the pain washes over me and I feel like dying. Seeing him everyday does not help at all.
      Xanax Working / Worked
      When I take it I stop shaking and I can function. I don't like being dependent on medicine to survive this at all. Limit it to when I feel so out of control.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      My husband decided he hates me, we work together and I love him. I am on Prozak and have a Zanax presription for when it gets really bad. I feel it has helped. I used these many years ago also with results of helping me feel better.

      Treatments

      Prozac Working / Worked
      I feel it works, it takes a bit of time and I had to up the doseage to get better results.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Not sure about this, I talk they listen. Tell me it is not me...but seems to just be repetitive and can only go so far. Need to help me myself.
