Tick tock 2 (Priscilla’s story)
It was getting late. The alcohol was long gone and I was too tired to go out and buy another bottle. I was more than just physically tired, I was emotionally and mentally drained. My marriage had taken its toll on me.
I had lost interest in everything and my mood was
persistently low. The doctor said I was clinically depressed and had prescribed
some medications. But how do you treat the symptoms when the root cause was
eating into me daily like a cancer.
I was tired of trying; tired of trying to fix
something that could not be fixed. It had gone from bad to worse and when the
sex, the last thing that held us together, stopped, I employed the services of
a divorce lawyer. I did not intend to be caught off guard.
