LuvsTrucks2 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I'm somewhat amazed at how fast the time is going. I have been keeping pretty busy. Things seem to be progressing along and I thought I was doing pretty good, but every now and then, the tears creap up on me when I least expect it. Anyone else going through something similar?

RightThere Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Yeah. The lows are less and less, but always there. It's just part of the new normal. Link to post Share on other sites
strive Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I've been doing good progress too but yeah, sometimes there are just things that remind you of the past. I envy you that you're so busy you feel like time is flying. I have a lot of down time that I feel like 'omg it's only just one month?!?' because it definitely feels like forever.

Author LuvsTrucks2 Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 strive, Keeping busy does help a lot. I had a tough time a few weeks back, but I vamped things up a little more. I work full time and the weeknights seem to really fly by, the weekends are harder. Sundays are the worst for me, but I just focus on trying to do things as well as try new things. Last Sunday, I got out and cut the grass just to prove to myself I could do it again after so many years of not having to do it. I was elated and proud, the yard looked very good. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Lucky Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Last Sunday, I got out and cut the grass just to prove to myself I could do it again after so many years of not having to do it. I was elated and proud, the yard looked very good. One small step for a spouse, one giant... Funny where the little victories come from when you're trying to move on. I'm sure it did look good !

Shocked Suzie Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) I'm somewhat amazed at how fast the time is going. I have been keeping pretty busy. Things seem to be progressing along and I thought I was doing pretty good, but every now and then, the tears creap up on me when I least expect it. Anyone else going through something similar? I still get like this and it's nearly a year for me...BUT the deepness of the feelings, the waves that you experience and the overwhelming feelings reduce, they are much less intense and you will be able to manage them ,allow them...then move them to one side. Let emotions flow, try not to out too much pressure on yourself to heal and get to a point where you say right enough dwelling for now and drag yourself out of it. It's really hard making lifestyle changes when it's never been something you've thought of or wanted to do...being forced to do it because of someone else's actions is hard, but has to be done to be able to move forward and begin to love/find yourself again. Small simple things that how I am doing it and opening my eyes to simple things I've taken for granted for many years...appreciate what you have and what is around you, in time the rest will come SS x Edited November 10, 2013 by Shocked Suzie Link to post Share on other sites
Misadventure Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 It's the grieving process still. Its over 4 months for me now and still I have moments of sadness even though I know what a two tone pig rat [email protected] he is. Link to post Share on other sites
Monodare1 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I'm at the 5 month mark and can't do no contact as we have a coming up for three year old. During the week I gym it regularly and play badminton with friends and go to a bar on a weekly basis with them. Tends to be the Sunday nights after I've dropped the little fella off with her. Feel the sadness and imagine what I would be doing at the same point last year. Link to post Share on other sites
