Usually after a vacation with my family, I feel refreshed and renewed. We all as a family have a chance to wind down and relax and grow closer.

This time was different. I still don't feel any closer to my husband than I did when we left. We have been having our issues lately (as stated in other posts so I won't go into it). I was hoping that we would relax and have a chance to talk about things, but we didn't, really talk about much at all other than what we were going to do that day and what the plan was for beach, etc.

I am feeling depressed now that I am home, and usually I feel good after a vacation.

There are so many stresses going on in your life at the moment it is no wonder that your holiday wasn't the refreshing time it usually is. I really hope that you can get through this tough time so that your family time can be less stressful and your next vacation is awesome. After what you have been through, resolving things with your hubby is going to take time. He has let you down badly and there is a lot of hurt and disappointment there. Take it slowly and look after yourself.

Its no wonder your not refreshed since there was so much going on when you left. Maybe you can have a mini vacation at home where you just spend time with your family and leave the world outside. That is after you resolve the issues that are stressing you out. I personally have to do that every so often to pull my family back in. Good luck!

I can completely understand, you are trying to cope with the lack of communication with your husband. It sounds as if you have been having troubles for awhile.
For me when I set expectations and am dissapointed later, i go into a state of depression, which sucks.
Maybe you could talk it out with your husband and have him help you work through the way you are feeling. If he does not want to listen or he just does not understand, feed him information and insite.
I am really sorry you are going through this. I wish I could take away your pain. Just understand, you are not alone. I have been in your situtation before.
