My healing journey started in ernest on a night in 2013. My wife suggested we take a break in our marriage. Because of how I was doing at the time, she thought it would be something that I wanted. I vehemently expressed how I did not want that, but was met with apprehension and doubt. I remember saying out loud, "I'm going to lose my wife and kids, and there's nothing I can do."
To say that I broke down crying would be an understatement. I broke. I sobbed and heaved uncontrollably. I'm not even sure how long it lasted.
That night, I finally agreed to go to therapy.
