I was married for almost 22 years we rarely argued.  We had 4 Children we were raising.  Off and On I suffered from Depression, We were always tight for money as I mostly was a stay at home Mom.  We were behind on are Rent, I could no longer deal with everything so I went into the Stress Unit of are Local Hospital to get Help. I did not do it right  I left my family a note when they were at work and School.

My Husband turned to my best friend.  When I got out he told me he did not know if he could stay with me.  They ended up having and affair Both dening it but our childrens friends saw them together.  I did not want a Divorice. Our youngest Son Randy was only 14  I asked him to at least stay with me until Randy Grauated in 4 years.  He could have his affair.  We Divorice the next year His discision.

I had a nervous breakdown, and was unable to care for the children  so they stayed with their Dad. 

Randy was Killed in Ranadi Iraq in April 2005  The Military would not let his father nor myself look in the casket. so we was never able to see him.  I feel so much guilt for not being able to handle the Divorice and missing out on so much of his teen years.  Has anyone gone through something similar?

I am doing much better now and am with a Man who treats me good.
