Hi, im new here i’m going through a difficult time. After 15 years a 3 beautiful children my husband came home from a tour of duty and wants to seperate. I started to SI. I have no one to talk to and i’m glad i found this site.
I think finding a professional is a good idea. It sounds like you’ve got a lot going on and there are people who can help you through it.
In the meantime I hope you can find some other coping skills to get you through tough feelings. Every day I make sure I’m eating right, getting the right amount of sleep, and some form of exercise. If my body doesn’t get taken care of my mind and emotions get out of control.
I’m also not sure of the phone number but you should be able to look up a crisis number where you can talk to someone.
Hope something here helps. Take care. Treat yourself gently.
I am in the same boat. My husband just one day asked for a separation the end of Feb. My world came crashing down upon me. We got into Marriage counseling are you open to get some help with your marriage get talking more and try and fix things?
Like the person above me said try and find some alternatives to self-injury like read a book, go for a drive, go see a movie. do you have a hobby, or go to the GYM, or a walk. play with pets, write a letter or call someone a friend or a hotline. something to get your focused on besides your impulses to self-injure.
Well its harder for me to get help my husband is military and if i spoke to anyone it would hurt his career. i dont know if he has been with another girl or not i kust know bits and pieces he has told me. He says he hasnt but i do know he came close to sleeping with someone on one if his tours of duty. Im concerned about him getting diciplined if i say snything and if the office of special investigations starts an investigation im worried whst they might find. My kids and j could lose all our health benefits etc and i have a child with special needs. Also my husband works in the medical clinic on base. I have already requested snd got commander approval to see an off base doctor, since my husband works in the clinic with my primary doc. Infact the counseling and everything i could receive is in the same building. I fear about word getting out. So i feel really trapped and cant tell anyone????
The other day i got so upset i almost called his supervisor. i decided instead to cut. i didn’t realize how upset i was and i didn’t feel anything when i cut my self. it was the worst i had ever cut myself. i never felt any pain at all. it really needed stitches but my husband who is in the medical field used steri-strips etc to fix it. It really scared me. i hope it never happens again and that’s when I found this site. i don’t want it to happen again. i just need someone i can talk to other than the one who has caused my emotional pain…… I’m glad I found this site!!!
