Bro - I am having a rough week. My W is off on a 4 day vacation with one of her boy toys. I am struggling being a single parent. I have constant reminders of the other men my W is seeing. I have anxiety about the divorce and my home is a war zone with constant tension and arguing.
It is really a low point in my life. My coping strategy has been to read sections of the same book over and over again and to talk to family and friends. I pray constantly.
I think I am going through a mild depression. I talked to my IC about taking AD or sleep aids. I am not quite there yet, but I am seriously thinking about it.
The truth is that in a lot of areas, I am truly blessed. I have a good job, I have lots of friends and a supportive family, I go to a wonderful church, I am healthy and have 3 beautiful healthy children. I know that I am loved by God.
I know these things in my head. All I feel in my heart is the death of my marriage and the pain of a family that is falling apart. At times I feel like a complete failure.
Thank you for asking. I know you are struggling with the same emotions. You are not alone.
