Hey all. Still here lurking. Been very depressed. It takes too much energy to post.
Sheila - I don't have any new suggestions for you, but I know that we always hurt the ones we love the most. I know when my father and grandmother died 2 weeks apart back in 2002 (both unexpected), I was a total basket case. I thought I would never stop crying. DH was there for me the whole time, just let me cry and cry. He was just there. Just remember there is nothing you can do to make him feel better and as a man (sorry Rx) he is probably bottling a lot of it up. Counseling isn't a bad idea if he'll agree. I didn't have counseling and I still survived. Thank God for DH. He still is understanding when I cry about it. Oh, he did "make" the dogs love me extra the whole time. I remember being really soothed by the dumb dogs. Go figure.
Hanna - I am so sorry to hear of your cyst and your toxic mother. My goodness, you would think she might be worried about her own flesh and blood! I really hope everything turns out OK and you are VERY strong. Better woman than me. Vent here when needed. Lord knows I whine enough.
GG - Sorry about the doggies. What a rough day. Makes my crappy work week seem like a breeze. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Sorry to all the others who have posted that I haven't mentioned. I am too sad. I know it's stupid and my life is nothing compared to most of yours. I just can't shake this.
