From my posts here in Relationships and in BP, it's probably been obvious that I've been on a semi-controlled wild ride/soap opera of emotions in my relationships lately. I've been frustrated when things I've said have been taken differently from the way I meant them. I used to be such a good writer, it frustrates me when people who are no doubt well meaning respond in a ways that say I didn't succeed in making myself understood.

I think I'm going to take a little break from PC while I work on the real life end of things for a while. I know some people will disagree, but the decision that my wife and I made together is that our biggest goal is to save and rebuild our marriage. To prepare myself, I'm working hard in therapy and going to support groups to work on healing myself so I can be in a healthy relationship again. I'm staying on track with seeing my pdoc and taking my meds to get my head in the best shape possible. I'm also working on the religious side of things, kind of starting over again from the basics to decide for myself again if what I was always taught to believe really is true. When the time comes, I plan to work just as hard in couple's therapy until the day we all agree I can move home again and even beyond then.

I'll still be around, just lurking quietly. I'll still post if I think I can be of any help in a thread, but I probably won't start any new threads for a while. I may still check in with friends who have made the effort to PM me, and I'll certainly welcome and respond to PM's from anyone who wants to see if I'm still alive.

Thanks to all who have responded to my posts. I just think the RL side of things needs my attention right now, but I'll certainly post when there is something worth posting about.

Thanks,
Bowhunt
