It's really hard - but I end up pushing through and creating mini goals within the goal and usually repeat nonsense in my head over and over to ignore the time that is passing. So for example, when I'm running if I still have a mile left, I'll break it down into 400 meters, and just repeat 1 and 2 over and over with each…

Thanks for all the support and ideas. I really like the biking ideas - stationary or not. All the stretching techniques are good too. I just want the pain to end!!! Who knew something like this could be so horrible? I don't know if I could afford a brace, but if I went to my doctor, I wonder if it would be at least…

Thanks Jer. It's good to be reminded of this at anytime. But it's great to be reminded now. Thanks for the support!

I love these! Keep sharing

Sometimes I seriously consider it.

He says sorry, but he's agreeing to the divorce. Saying he'll have more "respect" for me. Whatever that means. I feel like if he was truly sorry, he'd be fighting for us. But he's not. Plus, it's hard to believe a liar. Thanks for your support.

I need to do all of this. Thank you. It seems so relaxing. Exactly what I need.

I live in Downey, in the LA area.

I love reading, it always puts me in a different state of mind. It's relaxing, refreshing and lets me escape. I know this would be more of a self-help thing, but when I exited the military with PTSD, I held onto a book called The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom (A Toltec Wisdom Book) by Don Miguel…

I do get pretty panicky sometimes, but mostly either mad or sad. I'm going to be reaching out for counseling within the next couple days, HMO doesn't really allow for immediate relief (that I know of), but I'm pretty sure I can cope with what I have right now until I'm able to do that. I know I can b/c of the kids... but…

Thank you for the link! This is great advice as well.

It does feel exactly like a death. That's exactly it. I hate it.

Thank you so much everyone. The BRAT diet was a great suggestion and everyone kind of leaned towards that. At least for now I think that's the best food route. I didn't even think of toast or anything simple. I just can't think at all. We have oranges at work all the time, which is the only reason I've had that. I moved to…

So chill. Keep it.

I love food. Almost everything, save fish/seafood. I also have larger than normal portions, like 2 instead of 1. Or 3. Who am I kidding?

Me!!!

We're in the same boat. Good luck with your journey. If you keep this attitude, everything will turn out fine.

When I realized that life wasn't going to get any "easier" and my rut is just going to get worse.

This was some great POSITIVE wisdom! Thanks!
