    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      The picture is of my girlfriends and I in our pool on vacation in Roatan. I am divorced after 27 years of marriage. I worked very hard to make him happy and he ended up cheating on me with one of his employees for a long time and lying to me when I asked him to tell me the truth.

      Treatments

      Forgiveness Working / Worked
      letting go and forgiving was a self serving exercise. It helped me find peace and a way back to who I really am
      Love Working / Worked
      Now that I have found the many forms that love takes - my kids, my friends, my extended family and even myself, I am able to truely love a new man in a way that is meaningful and deep rather than needy and rushed.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      ex husband wouldn't go to counselling so I went alone. It helped some.
      Reading Working / Worked
      Books included "Too Bad to Stay, Too Good To Leave" "Surviving Infidelity" "When your Lover is a Liar" "Loving Kindness" The Bible all kinds of humerous books also did tons of New York Times Crossword puzzles - great for getting your mind on something else that will drive you nuts!
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Family has been there through the horrible times and the good times
      Supportive Care Working / Worked
      Girlfriends - they are the BEST treatment for what ails you when you go through this. I have laughed, cried, talked for hours and travelled with them. My girls rock!
      Time Working / Worked
      even with the passing of time, I greive for my marriage and the family that we once had. Now that more time has passed I have changed this to "working/worked" because the more time that passes the more at peace I am with the divorce. I can see now why my marriage failed and I can see how much better off I am with my current love.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
    • Close Scleroderma
      Type: Diffuse Scleroderma

      My only daughter was diagnosed with Systemic Scleroderma a little over a year ago. She has all the symptoms - thick skin, very little movement left in fingers and wrists, severe lung involvement, gastrointestinal problems, Reynoud's etc. Since there is very little that I can do for her other than help her, support her etc. I want to raise awareness about this nasty disease.

      Treatments

      Cellcept Working / Worked
      minimally helpful - skin only
    • Open Infidelity

      My husband of 27 years cheated on me with one of his employees

      Treatments

      Forgiveness Working / Worked
      For the most part I have forgiven him for the cheating, still struggling with the fact that he lied to me time after time. Also still struggling with forgiving her - someone who posed as a my friend all the while. I'd prefer just to forget she exists but since he moved in with her, that is not possible and my adult kids will have nothing to do with her so their relationship with their dad is strained at best - even after two plus years.
