I think this is an issue we all face. The easy advice we all get / give is "take care of yourself" and "separate your self worth from your marital status", but the fact is that we spend almost all of our time and our energy supporting and taking care of our family. Of course our self-worth is tied up in it.
BINGO!
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
