Nice to meet you.
Hello, I'm Aurie.
I'm in a bad place right now. In the past, I have struggled with anxiety and am still working through childhood issues.
Recently, I've been dealing with my husband's PTSD (he's a healthcare worker and has had rage outbursts lately, but is working on it). We went through a rough patch and I started talking to an online friend, and we admitted our growing feelings towards each other. Decided to work things out with hubby, and broke off contact with the online friend yesterday.
Not sure if I made the right decision. Feeling down/missing my friend/worried about hubby/guilty/feeling bad that I like(d?) someone else.
Thank you for reading this.

Hey Aurie,
Thanks for taking the time to share a bit about things going on and your thoughts. Sounds like you are struggling with things especially right now as anxiety can be overwhelming and would have you thinking over things a lot.
I guess like you have a lot of memorises from before that make things hard. Sounds like you and your husband have been going through a rough patch but you are trying to get things to work. I can imagine you developed a connection online perhaps you were able to share about how you feel. The good thing is that you foudn this community and you could open up on here.
I guess like you made your decision for a reason and it felt right for you but I guess what happens with them is hard.
