It's hard to stay upbeat when your body is tired and your hubby is depressed. It will not be this way forever (that's what I always tell myself). Hang in there and pamper yourself a bit if you can find a spare minute. Even a nice bath or shower with some good smelling soap and a candle can help you feel a bit better. You have to bathe anyway, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-update---where-ive-been#post-1054753 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 21:24:20 +0000 Adelfa 1054753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're amazing!

It takes a lot of energy to change all of one's habits at once without a fully developed support system.</p> <p>I wish both of your the very best, and look forward to your return to the forum when things even out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-update---where-ive-been#post-1051999 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 01:06:17 +0000 Angie 1051999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, hang in there Becky and Mr. Becky. You both have very full plates. My word. Take the time to enjoy one another too. We miss you of course, but totally get that you're hectic. Thanks for dropping by. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-update---where-ive-been#post-1051992 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 00:47:04 +0000 cobaltblue 1051992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi, Ceit, Suz, thank you! I'm just glad that I've been well and feeling good, myself. Once he's feeling better, maybe I'll take a vacation. :)</p> <p>*lyn, I really appreciate the pro advice. I forgot to mention that he is also working with a MD and that the herbs are something the doctor and counsellor suggested. I'm not sure of the details, but he'll be taking whatever it is by their recommendation.</p> <p>Forgot to say that all our classes are going really well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-update---where-ive-been#post-1051985 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 00:33:59 +0000 Suz 1051985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Becky - so so sorry to hear of the stress you are under.

So sorry things have been rough for your husband. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-update---where-ive-been#post-1051977 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 00:05:18 +0000 Mochi 1051977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry for all the stress. That's tough. Looks like DH is making his way forward, though. Hopefully you'll have more free time soon for yourself, whether it be for YLF or anything that replenishes your spirit. Thanks for touching base.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-update---where-ive-been#post-1051953 Mon, 14 Oct 2013 23:38:00 +0000 cobaltblue 1051953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry that I've dropped off the map. I do miss you all and have been lurking a bit, but I haven't had the energy to post.</p> <p>We've been incredibly busy since the move, and I haven't had much time. Unfortunately, my husband has been seriously second-guessing his decision to go back to school and fallen into depression. He's felt blue before during streasful periods, had insomnia, lost weight, etc., but this has been the worst spell so far. He's finally started counseling sessions and is considering herbal supplements (doesn't want anti-depressant medications). Anyway, I've been doing everything with the kids, house, cooking, etc., so that he can focus on school for now. That leaves me studying at night and spending the remaining free time with my husband. I miss YLF so much, though, and the best pieces in my wardrobe make me think of you all. Hopefully things will stabilize soon and free up a little fun time for me! :)</p> <p>Becky </p>
