I posted several months ago, and if any remeber I got into a huge fight with my grandmother who is still married to the person who abused me. She doesnt have a clue.

Wanted to give an update.

Overall I am doing better, but still on Zoloft 200mg a day, and also taking klonopin to relax me as well as help with panic attacks.

I think if it werent for those meds I would be a lot worst.

I also am starting to see a new therapist. A licensed psychologist who specializes in OCD, and Cognitive therapy. Which is something I really need. My OCD I need to get rid of to get back my life.

I have also been so stressed out with work, and other people problems in the family, I have not really had the time to even think about my abuse anymore, so in a way it is good...plus i found a new hobby..playing EQ2...that really helps me forget all my problems. Though the game is so addicting my wife doesnt like it, because i spend more time on the computer, but it helps me forget about going to strip clubs, and not think of the abuse and helps me not be as stressed.
 
Good to see you back.

Dont neglect your wife though. She sees the good in you and is probably your rock. I know mine is. ;)
 
Good to see you back Riptide, yes, I do remember you.

Connection/communication with your grandmother is not necessary and is harmful to your well-being. Take care of yourself. That is what matters.

As Mikey says, be kind to your wife. She's probably your number one source of support as well as being your friend.
 
I'm glad you are doing better, we all need good times.

It is great to have ways to help us relieve the stress, at one time the computer and online friends were my way, but I got totally addicted to the computer until I was hurt by someone, then I was gone for a very long time. It is great to have a hobby that helps to forget, but as the other guys have said, don't neglect your relationship with your wife, I'm sure she in one of your rocks for support, and we all need all the support we can get.

Peace,
Scott
 
I wasn't around for your original posts, and I am no expert in life, but BE KIND TO YOUR WIFE. Learn to read her mind. I am about to lose mine, and I see now all of the subtle clues that she thought were so obvious. If she is your rock, don't let her erode out from under you.
Like I said, I am really in no place to offer advice, other that to be sure you are doing your best to meet her needs. For a clue of my story, read the poem The Pledge, posted on this site.
Take care

Thanks all.

You are right I need to pay more attention, just so much stress IRL right now, it is my only peace of mind.
 
I realize that sress is a major force in our lives, and at times we feel ill equipped to cope. Think about your stress level if your W leaves, like mine is about to do. I do not know how to cope, and I don't know what EQ2 is. I just know that I love her, thought I showed her, thought she knew, but I was way off base. She has backed out of MC sessions several times, and I fear she is going to do it again tomorrow morning. Look your W in the eye, ask her if she is happy with your R, and figure out what you can do if she isn't. I don't mean to be a nag, but I was blindsided.

I think EQ2 is Ever Quest 2. https://everquest2.station.sony.com/
