Take Time to Look After Yourself

When you find out your spouse has been cheating, it can feel like a real punch in the gut. You can become nauseous and even sick to your stomach( I know I did) ….

You find it hard to keep anything down, and this is just as true for husbands as it is for wives who have found out about their spouse’s infidelity…


What ever else you do, it’s vital that you eat well and look after yourself. You need to keep a good head on your shoulders and this is hard to do when you are hungry.

Make yourself eat something, even if you don’t feel like it. Even a nutritious fruit smoothie will help. Make a blend of fruit, milk and an extra bit of sugar.  Take a multi vitamin supplement to make sure you aren’t missing anything. Soup and crackers can be nutritious and comforting…they remind you of simpler times in your life.

eat something healthy


If you feel nauseous, try drinking some ginger tea or natural ginger beer. The ginger calms your stomach but won’t make you sleepy the way some over the counter anti nausea medications can.
I can’t over emphasize enough that you see a doctor. Don’t be embarrassed or ashamed to let them know what happened and why you are there. If you are having trouble eating, let them know. If you are feeling really stressed out, they,ay be able to recommend some solutions or refer you for therapeutic massage to help you relax.

Most importantly, remember that no matter what happens, you will get through this. Things will get better and the sun will shine again.
