Karen's post says it all. Mind, heart and soul rape is accurate. I too read, read, read, everything I can get my hands on hoping that I will discover some miraculous cure. None exists. In psalms David said my sin is ever before me. Well, my husbands sin is ever before me. There is no escape. It is before me at church, home, work, everywhere. Their affair was so long and far reaching, there is no escape. I am up now at 4 am because I can't sleep. The things that gave me joy in the past are gone and seem so unimportant. You ask what helps deaden the pain? For me any relief is temporary but for now it is any type of distraction, especially those which fully occupy my thoughts. A movie at the theatre, being busy at work, away trips, and sometimes shopping. However, the relief is always temporary at best. My pain is always lessened when my husband is tender and focused on me. 8 months from d day and I know now it is not going away anytime soon.
