Sage advice GameGeezer,
I do think there is a light at the end of this, however it runs it's course with my wife. I'm a high school dropout, not an idiot mind you, but have been guilty of pretending my lack of formal education didn't matter. Turns out, I think a lot of my problems are rooted in the low self-esteem of seeing my friends surpass me tidily over the years because they actually went through that fire and forged themselves into the community and it's standards. I probably would have went back to school a long time before now, but got caught up in a marriage and kids.
The wrong taks I tooks by not completing school put me on a path that led me to being a father, but maybe not as good of a father and husband as I could have been. Taking these steps towards education, I think, will not only make me more desirable to my wife, or future mate, but more importantly to myself.
I have a good doctor, she basically saved my sanity by prescribing meds that corrected a glaringly wrong part of my life. So seeing her now is a good idea, and I will do that.
Thanks for your advice. I understand what you say about relying on the "online world", but they are not my only supporters right now. However, they are very important, and like you, do help quite a bit. I can't pretend I'll do everything right, but I'm trying, and you good folks here are helping a lot. An extended family is a valuable thing.
