Your children will be fine if not better if you go.
My heart aches reading this. It sounds incredibly difficult and isolating for you. You're incredibly strong to shoulder this burden while still prioritizing your children and trying to support your husband.
It's okay to feel overwhelmed and exhausted and it's important to remember
that you're not responsible for your husband's mental health.
In Being in my ex husband's life, it comes with a lot of daily problems as well.
My new husband often saying I'm in a relationship with him as well - the mental illness winds you in !
I take my mind away to selfcare. Then we go for a walk.
Lately spending hours watching rescue dogs. This needs to stop...
You deserve peace and love. Remember to prioritize your own well-being. Take time for yourself. How can you do that ?
I remember one day I hopped out of the car and opened the boot to find my eye glasses. I felt a fresh 5 minutes of being present just picking up my glasses and holding them. It was like a reset. It was like
Self-care
It was 5:5 years since I packed my bags and left.
It was very tough. I went to his home every day and spent long time sitting with him so he wouldn't commit suicide.
What I learned was my own mental illness. I went to therapy. If you see your GP, you can get 10 free appointments with a clinical Psychologist and often they will keep on seeing you at a reduced rate.
It took me about 2 years to wind down.
Everyone knows and possibly getting sick of my new hobby @Healandlove
It's quilting. Just square material squares in a quilt.......I tend to show them but I forget they all kind of look the same....lol
