Hi! Just wanted to tell you that I understand how hard the conversation with your H. was. I was in the hospital several weeks ago for 2wks. I was diagnosed with acute stress disorder. It was pretty obvious things had gone bad when I was on the floor of the grocery store sobbing cause I couldn't figure out how to choose a vanilla ice-cream.

Anyway, my H. visited me one evening and I had spent the whole weekend planning to finally tell him EVERYTHING. I also try to hide symptoms, disorders etc. I just couldn't do it anymore. We have been married 28yrs. It was sooo hard and he looked scared and panicked. It didn't end well that evening. But, after he had some time to digest what I had told him, it got much better. By the time I came home from the hospital, I felt like our marriage had moved to a new level and I didn't feel the strain of always pretending. Sooo exhausting. Hope it goes well for you.
