Some of you may know that my husband is currently away for a month, he has been gone for almost 3 weeks already. The days are very slowly going by but it really seems as though I am not coping with the overwhelming sadness and loneliness that I am feeling. I cry at the drop of a hat and just feel this ever present ache. It doesn't help that I learned that this absence might extend to two months.

My husband does not know how I feel as I do not tell him how dependent I am on him. He knows to a degree but thinks I am handling this all quite cheerfully. But I am not.

I just feel overwhelmingly emotional and not quite sure how to handle it. Coming to PC has helped as has the occasional glass of wine - but I don't even want to go there.

I wish there was an easier way.
