Seriously Depressed Again

    Hi,
    I could use some advice here big time! About nine months ago I split with my wife. Her choice not mine! I was devastated by the news of her wanting to leave me and have a different life altogether. I cared about her and loved her so much. She was my whole world. Everything I did revolved around her and making her happy. She wasnt high matinance or anything like that. If fact quite the opposite. She was easy to please and keep happy. Which is why I couldnt understand her leaving me. It took me along time to really come to terms with things. But in the process of her leaving me it cost me my job, financially ruined me, the lot. To the point I thought of just ending it all. But no matter how cruel or hurtful she was to me I still loved her. I finally got away from it all for awhile and went to london which did me a world of good. Made new friends, basically started over! I recentley had to come back here to Ireland because things with the job that I took didnt pan out as expected. But the entire time I was there not once was I depressed about anything that had happened to me. Nor did I think about it. But now that Im back in Ireland these thoughts are starting to creep into my head again as I have no job or income or anything except the roof over my head. Which Im grateful for. But my attention seems to be focusing once again on her and its really started to get me down again. I was doing so good there for awhile and now I dont know what has happened again. If anyone could give me some suggestions on what to do or how to handle this I would be very grateful.

    Contact immediate family or your closest friends and tell them you need a serious talk and arrange to meet up. Dont drink to excess, have a few but dont over do it. DO NOT worry about not having a job, so long as you have your house, your fine. In fact, you could consider letting it out for a while, and going back to try and make a go of it in London? Have you any friends anywhere else in the county that you could call up on, go stay for a night? You have to start trying to get used to being the person that you were before you were married... you still are that same person, and you will become the 'old you' that everyone knew a few years ago. It will just take a bit of time, thats all :)
