Good to hear from you! Just before you stopped posting, I had left my husband with whom I had lived for 37 years. It turned out to be the best thing I ever did for myself. Until I left, I hadn't realized the degree to which he made me feel inadequate and stressed out and ate away at my self-esteem. My desire to please him and make him happy also meant that I was constantly trying to do things I thought he would like and never really thought about what I would like.
Now I'm taking classes, studying an instrument, going to concerts and plays with friends (something he had no interest in), traveling abroad (ditto)..
When I moved, I got rid of a ton of stuff and completely de-cluttered my life. Washed that man and everything else right out of my hair. My mood is more stable because I'm not being triggered constantly.
