My therapist thinks that I should be on meds, lexipro so I went to my GP and he asked me a bunch of questions how do you feel etc. Although he sees that I have anxiety now due to my situation he doesn’t feel it warrants meds. This really relieves me. I have been going thru a real tough time lately. My wife wants to end our relationship, marriage, (4 kids) after 9 years due to anger/mood issues. She says I have always been angry and not happy. I feel as though I am a functional person, but I realized some of the things that she says are right. I do feel that I am happier then she says I am. Breaking apart my family will end my happiness for a long time.
I recently deployed with the Guard and as soon as I got home she sprung this on me which has put me in a tail spin that I am having a hard time pulling out of. I started to see a therapist (4 weeks now) and I started on this program about a week ago. I have been keeping a journal and trying to think positive, but when ever my mind wanders it goes down hill quick. Only a few of my very close friends know about my situation. I want to talk to my wife and tell her how much I need her, but every time we talk she gets mad and upset. I am so unsure on what I should do any advised would be greatly appreciated.
How do you know when you need meds.

Having been thru 2 previous divorces and having seen and experienced firsthand what and how it affects the children, I am hoping and praying that your wife and you can seek counseling together and give it a real shot. I am blessed with a wonderful husband, now of 27 years and he helped me to raise my children, one was a baby of 2 yrs. old at the time!! He had raised 2 children until they were grown in a 20 year previous marriage so he has done this twice!!
Bless him abundantly for all he has given in his life.
All he has ever wanted to do after retirement was travel and I did ok for a number of years but these last 2 have played havoc with me due to these attacks of mine. I am hoping and praying thru these tapes, workbook and online support, I will overcome!!
I wish you, also, the best here. You have a full plate!!
