    About Me

    Father of 3 with joint custody. Project Manager overseeing all capital improvement projects (construction and renovations) of a park authority. I suppose you Live and Learn. I'm really into my children, playing ball, hiking and just about anything outdoors. I also enjoy relaxing time, swing in a hammock or just lounging in front of the tube.

    Interests

    Like sports, both as a spectator and a player. Love the outdoors, like to camp and hike.

    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      Married 15 years, dated for an additional 8 years before that (though not continuous - on again off again) but was engaged for 4 years before our wedding. Basically, she just fell out of love with me. Long story short, I suffer from depression and have only sought help since Jan 2006. I was closing everyone out of my life and she just couldn't take it anymore.

      Treatments

      Couples Counseling Not Working
      Wife & I went to one meeting and she decided that it just wasn't for her.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      In for depression. It's going well, in addition I'm taking antidepressant medications.
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      My family really isn't that close or we don't communicate our feelings (especially the men).
      Support Groups Working / Worked
      It was good to be among people who could share similar feelings.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Had depression on and off for most of my adult life, but reached a point where I started to put my suicide plan into effect (Dec 2005). I got professional help for the first time in my life in Jan 2006. What pushed me to the edge has been several health issues: inner ear - I'm dizzy all the time, thyroid disease - I feel weak and now BPH - enlarged prostate that makes it difficult to use the restroom. I have 3 children and had a wife (separated June 2006).

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
      Went to a two week course. It was interesting and if you use the techniques it is helpful.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      Personally, this works the best for me.
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Currently taking it. Helps.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Currently in therapy and I attended a two week Outpatient program.
      Wellbutrin Somewhat Helpful
      I've been going up and down in doses with this stuff. I suppose it helps, but makes me feel nervous or jittery.
