• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

What do u mean? u've hsd 3.. Husbands?? Like what???


Sadly, yes I have had three husbands and did not make good choices. I should have let God pick him out, but you know teenagers.... I chose my first one at 18, second one at 35, third one at 40.... My last left 12 years ago and I decided enough was enough! They weren't all in fault... I was also. My first had an affair, my second had multiple personalities, and my third was an alcoholic... so I made poor choices and do not trust my judgement for number 4.:D

Well get better. U r on the rebound.
And hurting. Heal first.. And then dont look. Play hard to get.. Consider. Also
Keep in mind.. It took to make a relationship work. The first had taste.
Did he try to make it work? What happened? And what do u mean mult.
Personalities?? All of his personalities loved u right?? How were they ur fault?? Btw??!

Naw, honey.... the only "man" I need now is Jesus.

The multiple personalities??? well, I never knew who I was married from day to day.... It was like waking up in the morning and if I stepped out of bed onto a crate of eggs, I would break them, but if I took a step, I would break them... so no matter what I did, I was in trouble. I couldn't call or see my friends or brothers, go anywhere but work and then he checked up on me... When he grabbed me around the neck and threatened to break my neck I knew it was time to call it quits. That man has called me every year on my birthday and our anniversary for 30 years!!!!! he always threatens to come see me, but I am not afraid of him... he is more afraid of me because i would not back down from him. I told him to come on, but be sure to call ahead of time as I had a couple pit bulls and I would need to be outside when he got out of his car.... needless to say, I haven't seen him:D I didn't lie... at the time I did have a couple pit bulls... one didn't know he was a dog, he thought he was my child and the other was a goofy, silly dork!
