I'm new here, hi! Just one week to the day past D-Day. My WS is out of town and I'm doing all the "right" things to take care of myself and my two little kids (STI testing, IC, MC, anti-anxiety meds, self care, etc.). I am just now starting to come back into my body a little bit.
Being a sort of academic person, when something like this happens I try really hard to understand it and to figure out the best way to move forward. Having HUGE urges for HB when WS returns from his trip and am more than a little nervous about the wisdom of giving into it because I'm sure it will be super triggering. So, does anyone know of any *academic* articles about HB? I keep just finding forum posts, which are helpful, but.
I'm also wondering if anyone here read any particularly great books about recovery. We plan to try to R, so I'm just really looking for all the resources I can find.
I know everyone probably thinks this, but the A was so uncharacteristic of my WS. I'm still in the denial/anger phases and I know that could last a while. I just can't believe I keep being alive. So thankful for this resource!
