Nothing makes me feel as hollow and hopeless inside as Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is the time of year that none of my friends have time to hang out, obviously, because they are spending time with their families.

It is the time of year that all the bad memories from Thanksgiving come back, and I have to spend it with my family. Everyone that would understand what I am talking about is unavailable.

I have been reading up on it for quite sometime now and I have almost all the symptoms that were mentioned. I took various online tests which all said that I have it.

I recently went to a club and ended up hooking up with a guy there. I felt on top of the ######6 world for a few days and then that feeling started to wear off. I've been super reactive and started tearing up in public today which NEVER happens to me.

When I love, it's deep, it's strong, so strong sometimes ppl can't handle it. I appreciate everything about them, I tell them on a regular basis what I love about them, a certain look, certain expressions, ways of speaking... things I love so much I just want them to know... and I say it.

I'm trying so hard to focus on myself because I know that I cannot leave my marriage now if
I wanted to because our money is so tied together. My business is slow. I am working on selling

want to be more emotionally stable, experience more joy, work on self-care more before I make a
decision about my marriage. ...
