Years of infidelity and decades of dishonesty have destroyed my life. I am unable to cope, and professional help has been useless. I was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, and I'm having great difficulty with looping—obsessing and ruminating all day about her infidelity. The pain is unbearable.

Dear man, the way you describe a situation, the words you use, influence how you perceive it. I urge you to be careful.
I ask you, is it possible to say that lies and betrayal have stained many years of your past? Is it possible for you to say that the next years can be unmarred by that stain? Can you find hope? I have, I want it for you.
I am not trying to be trite. Your pain is real. I’m so sorry for your diagnosis. I hope medical advances in medicine and medical devices can bring you relief. But giving in to despair can kill the soul. There is healing to be had, truly.

People are more important than the relationships they are in.
