I am stronger than the storm.
I take every experience in my life, no matter how horrendous it was, as a learning experience

I slowly lost my mind one sentence at a time.
Oh WT, I have been there and it is awful, truly horrific, I know *exactly * how you're feeling today.
Big hugs to you. It's a long road ahead. Take care of yourself first.

I can tell you that when we had a similar event is when the fog really started to lift for my H. Pay attention to the actions.
You are doing what's best for you, taking care of you, finding some joy in your kids, and just getting through each day as they come.
Remember this is all on him. He chose this, and he caused this. It's up to him to start the work of fixing it. If he doesn't then you will be better, stronger, and happier without him.
((((and strength))))

I think you're very wise to just let yourself be at this point, wt.
Have some faith in yourself. You've got a lot of inner resources, and you've got a strong desire to heal. You may not be able to describe what you need right now, but it'll come to you, in all probability.

I'm glad that he opened up. I pray that this is it the entire truth. It is exactly like going back to DDay. Actually, it can be even worse IMO, because having once mustered the strength to try to go on, you're left with another empty, gaping hole, and less energy and desire to pick yourself up again. I think that you're wise to take a couple of days to just process, let your brain start to actually begin to function again. (((hugs)))
Imagine a ship trying to set sail while towing an anchor. Cutting free is not a gift to the anchor. You must release that burden, not because the anchor is worthy, but because the ship is.
