I think part of that reaction was depression, which I've had about all my life, but I started on antidepressants which helped so much because I realized taking them also helped my husband (caregiver) feel better if he thought I felt better.Katenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581343569425944386.post-49233893291086098082011-02-04T22:09:11.971-06:002011-02-04T22:09:11.971-06:00Lori: Thanks!

I finally realized that was my outlet.<br /><br />I can't knit, or crochet, but I once did cross-stitch. Maybe I should pull that back out. One can only stay on the Internet, so much!<br /><br />Blessings......and thanks for your knowledge!<br /><br />SarahAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18287410826256587335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581343569425944386.post-91747087849603583642011-02-04T10:00:21.697-06:002011-02-04T10:00:21.697-06:00It's amazing isn't it? Great Post!
Dave ...It's amazing isn't it? Great Post! <br /><br />Dave and I couldn't talk about it, except once in a while he would blurt out 3 or 4 words and look at me. I felt so alone as so many things were running through my head that I was trying to beat back or handle so I could keep focused on Dave. But when he would blurt something out like "I'm so sorry!" I would respond and add a tidbit of whatever my attention was on to help him. It was pretty stunted. But I just didn't feel like I could put all the stuff running through my head in his head. I just had to wait for him. It was so hard. I needed him so much.<br /><br />I'm also glad you didn't take anything. I don't begrudge others, but I don't feel its valid so routinely just because things are hard. It's LIFE! Feeling unwanted emotions in times like these is exactly how we get through it. When you take drugs it masks the process and I have people in my own family who never recovered from tragedies. I think its because they never actually worked through them as they were masked by the drugs. <br /><br />Tough stuff Sarah. You're doing great. Hope your man does well and has his pain managed.<br /><br />Best, <br /><br />LoriLori Puentehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11304096696996620733noreply@blogger.com
