@RDMercer thank you so much for checking up on me! As it stands right now, my husband and I are on good terms because of the distance between us. There is a level of acceptance for both of us, and I think it's important that he is with his family now. He needs their support, and they are better equipped to deal with him. I will and never will be his mother, which I feel was the role I was taking on rather than a wife.

I am still lonely and dealing with that every day. Sometimes I feel content alone in my own place, other times I bawl my eyes out like it's the end of the world, but I just think that's the bipolar in me. Overall, it's a healing process, and I have the support of my mom and dad as well as close friends nearby. I appreciate all the support that I am getting, and I am very fortunate.

Thanks again for checking in and following my story. I hope your situation has improved as well my friend.
