Hi Becks,

When I stopped my anti-depress. med 3 years ago, after being on it for 10 years, my emotions were a bit of a hilly ride for around 3 months. So you may be experiencing something like that also. It takes time for the body to get back to a "level" spot - now that spot may end up being depressed again, so consider that.

As for the husband, remember you have no control over another person, you really only have control, sort of, over yourself and your actions. My husband is not good at talking about or expressing his feelings. We recently read two books that were helpful, How To Heal A Painful Relationship by Bill Ferguson and What You Feel You Can Heal by John Gray. We found good advice and suggestions in both books.

I would go with trusting your gut instincts, acknowledging your feelings - at least to yourself if not your husband. But put the focus back on yourself, what do you need to do to help yourself, to take care of yourself? Then start taking the steps to do those things. Whether he's cheating on you or not, you need to decide what you are going to do to make the situation as it is right now better FOR YOU. You might start by trying to have a conversation with your husband about your feelings, your fears, your needs. Maybe your honesty about all your feelings, good & bad, will help him open up. But try to do it in as kind & loving way as possible.

As you take those steps to take care of yourself, your relationship and what, if any, further steps to take will become more clear to you. Good luck.
