Anybody else wonder what now?

If hubby won’t or can’t change, then you will need patience and very strong boundaries.....

Yup...working on trying to find that type of inner peace. Lol. Good boundaries with him for sure.

Yes I need to do something with myself. I'm hoping it'll happen by itself when I'm ready. Lolol! We need money though and they are already starting to cut programs which is going to continue. I don't know if I can do anything or what that might be. I just keep telling myself I'll be ready. April come she will I guess. : )

I am at that point. I feel mostly stable, and able to process my stuff and help others. I started a mini farm, and now I'm joining a suicide prevention group to help spread the message to act. I don't think I can go back to work, but I can do some things. I still have to watch it that I don't do too much. If I were not near retirement age, I would go back to work, but I'm so close I would rather volunteer.

has anyone else kind of wondered what happens next?

For me this feeling was the pathology that my left brain has lived all of its life. Trying to figure stuff out again. Hard to live in the now when I make my brain figure out the future now that I am better about my past.

In those moments I look to aromatherapy. I make stuff, I sniff stuff, I envision what I want to make right now. Because getting through that stage for me, was not biting the 'what next' hook and forcing myself to look at how to live in right that second.

I appreciate this topic. I can really relate to this.

I am still reminded daily at how much work I have left to do but I sometimes fear the quietness. It’s funny because I have prayed for peace and when I get it I don’t know what to do with it...typical. Lol

I was told to first learn how to do nothing. This really confused me because I had always been doing something to get well. Now it's a maintenance of keeping balance.
Some day's/week's even I achieve this balance & other time's I go straight off course.
Don't worry you will find heaps to do.

I feel I’m more in the position of just feeling stuck. I’m not exactly doing well, but I’m not at my worst either. I also haven’t been able to work due to memory loss from ECT, so filling up that time each day becomes difficult. The ‘what now’ feeling is a hard struggle
