After that both DH and I made some changes, we became more religious, which gave us a different outlook in life and I think that has also contributed in preventing the lows that can trigger a depressive episode.

I don’t even know where to start. Huge arguments about him wanting a second child when I didn’t. He eventually won because I couldn’t take it anymore. Possibly addiction. If one more big thing happens or he tries to manipulate me again I’m out.

His bizarre sense of guilt? or whatever it was to help his family financially, even though it puts our own family at a disadvantage. So close to walking away from him and his ridiculousness over people who only call him when they want something... Urgh, makes me so angry. His spending habits - he's gotten better but still drives me crazy how much money he wastes on junk we don't need or want. He always says "it's only money, can't spend it when we're dead" - yeah well I plan to live a long time and need it for my retirement! We have very different views and styles about most everything. It's best not to discuss politics at all. It's a miracle lol that we have been mostly happily married for almost 32 years. I think we both choose to mostly ignore stuff for the most part, it builds up and then boom we go through rough patches. Then suddenly for no real reason, things are good again.

Carters, I often wonder how you are doing since the loss of your dad. I'm sorry I haven't said so sooner. I'm glad to hear that you are doing better. Losing my father was the most difficult loss in my life. Again, I'm glad you are doing better. HUG.

I know that's a song lyric but it's true.

The single hardest thing I've ever had to do is deal with the death of my Dad. I feel a little better these days but DH was a saint those first few months.

Same here.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.
