@lisalucier My doctor has me on Remelteon for sleep. It hasn't worked for the last few nights but he wants me to stay on it since it may take time to kick in. I'm hoping it does soon since I am exhausted now. It's been two months or so that I have had problems sleeping. Last night I got six hours which is the best I have had in a while so maybe it is helping some now. The depression and anxiety are fine now. I seem to be doing better in that area.
My daughter is doing OK. Her foot is still bothering her but she wants to go back to soccer this week. She has a game on Friday that she wants to play in. I will probably end up getting her in to see the orthopedic next week to see what he says. Her therapist is good and has a treatment plan setup for her for the next three months. I think it looks good and she seems happy with it. My daughter and I spent Sunday night playing a Sherlock Holmes computer game together. We had a lot of fun.
My wife told me she isn't comfortable having me in the house and then a few minutes later asks me to fix something for her. I got a list of things that are broken that she needs help with. She did offer me dinner last night before my daughter's therapist appointment. She didn't sit with me while I ate but it was still nice that she offered. First time in months.

@mandrake70 That's good that your anxiety is improving, and six hours of sleep is better than it was. Hopefully in time with the new sleep aid it will improve even more.
I'm glad to hear your daughter is doing better. At that age, they are so eager to get back to their sports that it's hard to hold them down. Hopefully if the doctor does not feel it would be good for her to resume yet she will be OK with that. It sounds as if things are looking up overall.
Your wife wants the good, as in your help, but not the rest of it. I hope that counseling will help the two of you figure the next step, whether it be to try to work things out, or to choose to go your separate ways, whichever will be the best for both of you.
Keep in touch. I hope things continue to improve.
