i really screwed up

I was stupid and blaming my wife for here passing I angrily removed my wedding ring went out drinking met a woman and had her stay the night. I am so mad at myself and so sorry ,I cant take back what I have done and its brought me to my knees.

No !! I blame my husband and shout at him that it shouldnt have happened but it did. However we have to look at what we had before all of us are damaged in some respects. Move on dont feel guilty as actually everything can be rubbish but times will get better. Forget the Tramadol a bugger on your liver

Ich dont be too hard on urself. Life can be hard put it down to experience. You will learn to live again in a different way
