My SW life is adversely affecting my health. How do you compartmentalize?
Veteran SW Members: Please tell me how you compartmentalize your SW life from your real one. I am really struggling here. I have been an SW member for almost ten weeks. I am feeling guilty because I am hiding my presence here from my husband. He would never understand, even though he is the driving force for showing up. (For clarification, read my first posted story.)
But unfortunately, that guilt is manifesting itself through stress, and subconsciously causing me weight loss, excessive clenching of my teeth all the time, resulting in jaw pain and headaches. I actually had to go to the dentist today to obtain an apparatus, it's gotten so bad.
I really like my new SW life, but I have got to get a grip on this, or else I have to say "Peace Out!" Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
