Eating

satoko_t12@hotmail.com — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 01:00:00 +0100

Since I've got divorced, I havent eaten properly at all.

At first, I didnt mind as I thought its alright to lose some weight. So I didnt concentrate on eating at all.

But recently my body is certainly struggling. A few weeks, I've got throat infection and I had to be hospitalised. Since then every week I get cold and have to stay at home for half of the week.

My weight seems to go down slowly but steadily and last week when I went out to my regular pub, many of [...]

Trying to let go and move on

dawnuk57@yahoo.com — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 01:00:00 +0100

We lived together 3 years, bought a nice house and got married. We didnt have children as i couldn't stay pregnant for long, always miscarried around 8 weeks! Hubby had 4 kids from 1st marriage and we all got on pretty well, they stayed with us some weekends & on holidays, they lived away so contact wasnt constant.

I thought we happy together on the whole, despite his problems with alcohol & pill addiction (codeine dependency).

I encouraged him to leave his employmennt [...]

Why Blogging Is Cathertic

flopsybunny_uk@yahoo.co.uk — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 01:00:00 +0100

I’ve been trawling through my past blogs, dating back some 9/10 months. I wouldn’t say it was light reading, but it was interesting and useful to re-read old blogs, and see my own progress in black and white.

This road we are all on, the emotional roller-coaster we ride is a life-changing experience, a learning curve. The first tentativ [...]

Strange days.

memorcarpediem@yahoo.co.uk — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 01:00:00 +0100

What weird days these are. I think I am coming out the other end, I woke up this morning and didn't think I want to die, I felt calm. I really did want not to be alive on many days but I kept coming to wiki and peeps always picked me up. Hopefully no panic attacks today either. This improvement can't be the pills yet as they haven't had time to kick in yet. I think the fact I have now been open with the gp about how I feel and taken control has made me feel better. I first th [...]

Smiling again

andrewarmstrong82@btinternet.com — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 01:00:00 +0100

The quietman is back almost to his old self. I have been the happiest man on this planet for the last two months. Children have all made contact with me and having been a good boy and kept my mouth shut, courts have backed off. I am so happy. My two sons have become men. My eldest son turns eighteen this month and his seventeen year brother has left home and moved back to Cornwall. I have spoken on the phone to my youngest daughter and although it left me in tears, Iwas crying for joy. I [...]

Lots more new Blog Entries today

andrewcbaillie@msn.com — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 01:00:00 +0100

I've woken up today and felt a wave of desire come over me to "Write It Down".

You see, nearly a year ago something happened in our house (which I'll write about later).

In my eyes, what happened was, well - extra-ordinary.

So upset by it was I at that time, I took myself off to the doctors. I had been meaning to go anyway, I'd been feeling low up until that point anyway and needed to chat with someone about the levels of my drinking that h [...]

Upset about blog comment - note to self

andrewcbaillie@msn.com — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 01:00:00 +0100

Note to self:

Just a little upset about a comment that was left on my blog yesterday, blog entry entitled "My life's analogy".

Explanation - when things happen in your life, it's easy to become obsessed by it. So, if someone makes a comment about your weight, you can easily find yourself looking in every reflection of a shop window, or mirror, to see if you're putting on weight. Or, if you find out someone has been cheating on you, you normal rational [...]

Moving on

george.nevin@tiscali.co.uk — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 01:00:00 +0100

I had some 'me' time today doing normal stuff - putting the upcoming divorce to one side just for today. I spent the day just messing about on a boat (its a guy thing girls - like a shed but bigger - OH never understood - or wanted to, so I am safe with my boat) - fixed all the little things that needed doing - might even get on the water tomorrow.

And tonight, I feel at peace

So much has happened over the last few weeks.

First Day Back At Work

wikivorce@sbainbridge.cix.co.uk — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0100

One small step for a man, one giant leap for his mental health

Sorry for the terrible miss-quote.

First of all something about how I regard my job and myself - I regard myself as a professional person doing a job that I love with dedication, enthusiasm and with a passion, It was a moment of great despair when I learnt of the stbx's immenant departure and being sent home from work being unable to do the job I loved so much. It was the correct decision as I would have [...]

Thanks for the Blog Comments !

wikivorce@sbainbridge.cix.co.uk — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0100

This blogging seems to be very therapeutic. I was really encouraged by the three replies to my first blog, SOMEONE OUT THERE CARES. I would like to reply to the people who commented below

Marriaa

Thanks for the comments, I am sure that you are correct in that the emotions one experiences come in different orders for different people, sorry to hear that you are having to cope with loss at the moment, loss is a difficult emotion to deal with as there does not appear any way to [...]

My First Blog

wikivorce@sbainbridge.cix.co.uk — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0100

I started this blog as my profile, initially I felt too shy to post it, but having reviewed it I thought it would really be better as a blog

Need to give myself a reality check!

s73serendipitous@aol.co.uk — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0100

Had an appointment with the GP this morning to just mention a few things health wise to be met with a stark warning.

"Lose weight! and do it now!"

My weight has slowly crept up over the last few years, although I have always been heavier than I should have been.

This last year has seen my diet become really bad. Some days just existing on toast, chocolate and diet coke. My 3 eldest children now have free school dinners and the younger 2 are not big eaters so I just [...]

Housewife's Final Blog

flopsybunny_uk@yahoo.co.uk — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 01:00:00 +0100

When I started writing my blog, I found it easier to invent an alter-ego and write as though what was happening to me, was actually happening to someone else. Although I wrote in the first person, it, for me, was less difficult to describe the emotions of “housewife”, rather than the emotions of Ruby. (Hope that makes sense?) So instead of blogging as Housewife in the future, I intend to blog as me.
