Hugs, Artie. I hope everything turns out OK healthwise. And there's no shame in trying 100 mg of sertraline--it's a common clinical dose (can go up to 200 mg, I think).

Thanks, LT.
It just bothers me lately that both L and R (temp t) said that I don't need therapy anymore, that I have all the tools, etc. If that's true then I wonder why I feel like I do need that support. I don't know. Last edited by ArtieTheSequal; Yesterday at 06:45 PM.. |

I think Brodie is probably her most famous role before the harry potter/downton abbey things happened - even though she was constantly on stage, film, and tv. I liked her in Murder by Death -but the writing was not as funny as I thought it should be. I also enjoyed A Private Function and Tea with Mussolini. A Room With a View was interesting just because of how she didn't end up clocking Helena Bonham Carter as far as i know. HBC seemed like such a twit at that age and by all accounts, MS did not suffer fools gladly. I like HBC as an actress much better now

Do you have friends/activities that you engage with on a regular basis and not as a part of work or your husband? If not, then those might help. I don't mean just random workshops but more people in real life (not online) you can go for walks/hikes/coffee/whatever your interests are on a regular weekly basis. I know on weeks/months when my friends are away traveling (my friends are mostly academics or retired persons who scatter at certain times of the year) -I am a little more unsettled than when they are in town and we are regularly playing pickleball, walking in the park two blocks away, etc. Usually there are some others around -but during one month this summer - it seemed like everyone else was traveling and no one was in town to play with. I kept up with everyone through text, email, and phone calls -but it wasn't like the regular walks/biking/pickleballing I do with people most of the time.

I’m having trouble in my marriage. We aren’t fighting or anything. I think I just don’t love him anymore. I mean I love him as we are together for 24 years now but I’m not in love with him. We co-exist. We are more like roommates. We don’t spend any time together anymore. I work days all week Monday-Friday and he works nights all week Monday-Friday. When we are home together on the weekends we aren’t really “together”. Neither of us are putting forth any effort anymore. So it’s not just like I’m placing blame on him. I’m not. It definitely comes from both sides. The thing is that he’s not a bad guy. He treated me well. There is no simple answer to this. End it? Just keep living the way we are? I don’t actually expect anyone to give me the answer. I’m just sending the question out into the universe. Sometimes I wonder if I’d be happier alone. I’ll take advice if anyone has any. I know we can try to do things like find a hobby together or revisit some of the things we used to enjoy doing together to try to connect but the desire isn’t there from either side.

Lots of marriages end up like yours—roommates really. If it’s causing pain, do something about it. If it’s not causing pain, then think about what you want. Do you need that connection? Do you have some image of marriage that you feel you’re falling short of? __________________ Ich weiß nicht, was soll es bedeuten. Daß ich so traurig bin. “I do not know what this can mean.
