Sorry, my friend. I didn't mean to come off as insensitive - just trying to make light of a dark time...Originally Posted by Scott Harness
This year has been tough; I can totally empathize with being depressed and 'on the verge'. I remember saying "I am stepping out of this life one way or another!" - classic me. I'm on an up-swing right now though. Found out I am not getting laid off anytime soon, as I was instead, moved to a great project that really challenges me! Really busy again! That means no 6-month long roadtrip, however.
But this year's unsuredness forced me to start seeing a counselor a couple months ago - a few people know how out of control I had become (worse anyway). Those few sessions helped... it has been good to get out a bunch of negativity and get me back on course. Trying to redirect all that energy right now... it's like fighting cancer, in a way, I think.
Anyway, I don't mean to make this about me, just offering what I have found daunting and helpful lately (I'm not afraid of oversharing). I hope you are able to help lift your wife's spirits instead of her dragging your's down. Stay strong and positive, it'll get better!
