		<description>Hey there! This post couldn't be written any better! Reading this post reminds me of my previous room mate! He always kept chatting about this. I will forward this article to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read. Many thanks for sharing!</description>

		<description>You sound like a rotten horrible Israli Bitch With Aspergers.  Why dont you get yourself some cotten sheets, quit the pills and start talking to your husband.  Being a beautiful person on the inside mean letting Gods love shine through you.  Oh yeah and leave the nice people alone before you get stabbed and thrown in a dumpster.</description>

		<description>Lisa, 
       It saddens me to see you in so much pain.  We all say things from time to time we wish we hadn't.  It's part of being human.  Our children will always forgive us, as we will always forgive them for the, "I hate you mommy" comment. 
      The phyiscal pain from the migraines sound horrible.  Have you ever consulted a pain management specialist?  I've heard great things from those who have.  They not only prescribe meds but can also help with non pharmaceutical forms of treatment.  I also have a friend who swears a chiropractor has helped her become migraine free.  Hang in there and if there is anything I can do to help, let me know.

		<description>I've been lurking but have been thinking of you since your 3/17 post.  Life and marriage sure have their peaks and valleys, and I hope things begin to look up for you and your family soon.

Hang in there and be gentle with yourself.  You deserve that!</description>

		<description>You are soooo not alone.  We all have to have those bad days once in awhile, so that we can recognize the truly exceptional ones when they come our way.

And you apologized to those that matter, that is important and a most admirable thing to do.  Kids need to know that their parents are human, vulnerable to bad days and headaches, just like anyone else.</description>

		<description>"I did act like a totally selfish, horrible, ugly, hateful person. And I’m so horrified."

I think a truly selfish, horrible, ugly, hateful person wouldn't feel horrified at their behavior.  You're a human being, and anyone would feel raw and exposed after having the kind of week you described.

I hope things work out between you and Mark.  If there were a way to get him to understand your painful days, kind of like those demonstrations in high schools where they have kids dress in all black to represent victims of DUIs to illustrate in a visual manner the sheer numbers that DUIs can affect, maybe he'd catch on to what you feel like, a little bit.  I wish I could think of a meaningful way to pull off such an experiment, but I'm drawing a blank.  Anyway, I do get it.  I snapped at my men this weekend a little bit as well because I've had an ear problem for the last week and cannot hear out of my right ear, and the pain involved in it is taking over my entire head.  

You're not a horrible person.  You love them, and they know it.</description>

		<description>I hope you can see by now that you aren't a bitch. You've had some rough, painful days.  Day after day of that is bound to get to a person. The fact that you recognized that you didn't act very nice is proof that you aren't a bitch.  A true bitch wouldn't care how her words/actions/behavior affects those around her.  I hope that your husband will come to realize that if your sweet little man has the ability to forgive you, he should to.  (((HUGS)))</description>

		<description>Oh girl you are being way too hard on yourself. You can't help that you have sinus and migraine issues. (And I loved being your roomie and would do it again and again.) At least you have a medical excuse. I'm bitchy a lot for no other reason than that's just how I am. But you know what? I don't apologize for it. I apologize if I yell or say something I shouldn't but I am human and if the people I love can't see past my irritability and continue to love the good parts of me then they don't deserve my love. No one is perfect and we all have our faults and deserve the same kind of tolerance that we show others. You have tolerated a lot from Marc and the fact that he would let your comment that you said to Seth out of frustration (and later apologized for) be a breaking point saddens me. It seems he's looking for an excuse. Being "disgusted" with you seems a bit extreme for this situation and I know you pretty well. You are such a kind and caring person. You tend to put other's needs before your own. I know that your "ugly and disgusting" behavior is not you but your lack of sleep and a weekend of pain taking a toll on you. It would anyone. Most people get irritable when they don't feel well and it saddens me that Marc is being so hard on you. But I also think he knows he can come down on you and convince you that everything is your fault and you end up depressed and feeling bad about yourself. Shame on him. 

I worry about you and how often you have migraines. There just seems to be more that can help you. Have you tried a chiropractor? Even biofeedback with a therapist is worth a try and you can talk about your marital woes while you are there. Marriage counseling would also be a good next stop. Even though I think Marc is out of line on this one I do believe than in a marriage each person has their 50% in a breakdown of a marriage. Counseling can save a marriage. It did mine although we should be going in for a check up every now and then.

I've hijacked your comments so let's just talk later. Hang in there. You are so far from ugly and disgusting. You have no idea how wonderful you really are.</description>
