Nope no support system at all. I literally left with two suitcases to my name. I decided not to proceed with removing the restrictions mainly because I felt my safety, health and sanity were more important than staying in the country. It also entailed a lot of uncertainty with filing wavers, extra expense and I am certain extra abuse along the way would have come. If you have nothing here and nothing back home then I would go back home still. It is safe, familiar and you don't have to live day to day with uncertainty, being treated like garbage and used like a slave.

My first marriage was very similar in a lot of ways to your situation. I surrendered my Green Card and left. It was the best decision I made under the circumstances and absolutely no regrets.

Plausible deniability only applies when one doesn't know better. It's just denial if they know it's illegal federally and do it anyway.

Does your wife have a prescription or are you just buying it because you know it helps? I would heavily recommend ya'll trying to get on a more legal drug, as again, yes it's legal in your state but illegally federally which means for you in particular, it's illegal to even touch it.

I would go to the doctor and see what non-marijuana options there are for her pain.

It's one piece of advice that a lot of people don't understand is that if you are an immigrant, you should avoid EVERYTHING related to marijuana without question.

There are only two possible outcomes and both have been mentioned in the replies above.
Of what use is "real experience" here?

I mean you can hope for 4-6 months, but that is not a realistic expectation. You have to remember this is not standard timeline expectations. They are still backlogged from the shutdown and right now a LOT of people are scrambling to get naturalized as they have this unrealistic fear of deportation. I live in Southern California so my filing center likely takes a lot longer than others. I see you are filing through Texas though so you are also going through an office with a HUGE number of immigrants. I would be prepared for a long wait. At my ceremony recently I met someone who filed through a different office than Santa Ana and they still had a 9 month wait for an interview date.

I feel for you and I am familiar with your culture, but if it were me, I'd divorce and go home. You still have you whole life in front of you, don't waste it on a man who obviously doesn't care about you.
 
Screw the chatty old women, your well being is more important than their BS gossip.

Hi there.
 
The bad news is you will probably always be a little homesick, especially with such a big change. The good news is it will get better as the months and years pass. I was in the US for 2 years, went back to the UK for one and then came back to the US. I have now been here in the US 8 years (I'd have to check my timeline lol) and still miss things from the UK. I don't work and haven't since I got to the US. Personally I love not working but I understand some people do miss those interactions. 
 
It's nice your husband is trying to help you meet new people but honestly I would focus on meeting your own people outside of your husband's network. I would suggest looking online for local meetup groups for people new to your area (meetup.com is a good one). Sometimes there are groups specifically for immigrants (some even country specific) if you are not too far away from the city. By attending the meetups you will not only get to know your area better but you will also be able to interact with people in similar situations that understand and also start making friends. If there are no groups close by then why not start one? I am sure there are other new to the area or maybe just feeling isolated in general. There is also a site called https://www.girlfriendsocial.com/ you can sign up to. It's all women looking for female friends. 
 
I can relate to being a homebody but honestly in this situation you have to push yourself out of that comfort zone. Nobody is saying you have to attend or arrange day trips or be out partying until the early hours. However meeting for an hour for a coffee or going to watch a movie isn't all that bad and you can always just duck out if you are feeling uncomfortable.
 
I think you will find things improving over time but if you really don't I would suggest sitting down with your husband and discussing it. Unless the marriage isn't working then I would not look at packing up and head back to the UK until an absolute last resort. I would suggest discussing a move in State or out of State where you can both start a fresh and there is more happening than in your small town.
 
Finally just a bit of advice around the FB and social media thing. Try and keep off it or at least limit yourself. Honestly I made that mistake and spent months looking back at the good old times and what I was now missing out on. You think it makes you happy but it doesn't. It does nothing positive it just drags you down when you are feeling isolated and lonely. There will be a time when you can get back online and do the social media thing but right now you are not giving yourself a fair shot at building a life here if you are just spending your days looking back at the past. This is what is making you feel how you feel right now more than anything else.

Pay ZERO attention to any of the 90 Day Fiancé shows in regards to the immigration process. The only accurate information they have ever given is on the K1 you need to be married within 90 days. It's a great show for entertainment purposes but from someone that has been through the immigration period twice it is completely inaccurate and just edited and changed to entice viewers.
