Recovery Journey

It’s been 2.5 years and my heart still breaks from the loss. I miss her all the time. I read a post and thought, Do I really want a person who could just through out the 3 cats we had like they were trash. Just like she did with me, threw me out to the curb after 13 years.
I see other posts about how after years, their partner has an affair. Me too. Why? Why do people feel it’s ok to violate that sacred trust? Probably because they didn’t consider the relationship as important as I did.
What do I want? I want to stop hurting, stop being depressed, stop isolating, and stop self-sabotaging…

Hi friend,

I’m really sorry you’re still hurting from the loss and betrayal. It’s tough when someone you loved and trusted treats you poorly. It’s okay to feel this pain and question why things happened the way they did.

To help with your healing, consider talking to a therapist or joining a support group. They can offer guidance and understanding as you work through your feelings. Healing takes time, but with support, you can find a path to peace and move forward. You’re not alone in this. With love, SG

Thanks. I am going to counseling, to church, to Celebrate Recovery and I’m working (loosely) the program… trying to find the right sponsor…
One day at a time!
Progress not perfection!
