(((( Kimmy )))))

Yes yes yes EXACTLY Kimmy. Wow. I know he has fears and anxiety's surrounding his job. So now I know that what he's doing is a coping mechanism for him. You helped me understand him so much!! I haven't wanted to fully bring it up with him because I didn't want him to feel bad and I didn't want to cause more stress. I wanted to be his rock but didn't know how because I didn't understand what was going on. He says this happens in cycles.....so what you described sounds just like what he's going through. I needed to know this, I needed to understand....and now I feel SO much better. (Maybe you can show hubby this thread....and see if it helps him better understand you as well....)

that eating hurts because the stress is affecting my digestive tract, etc. I'm too exhausted to even eat, so I do what I have to at home and the rest comes second until it becomes a "have to" because so much is going on ALL THE TIME.

This is why I need PC. I need people from the outside to look in and tell me whats going on. I need people to help me understand what I can't see for myself.

I really think I'm getting a better understanding....if only he could express these things to me, but maybe he doesn't quite see it enough to express it.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!! If he wasn't sleeping right now I'd run in and throw my arms around him!
