Sorry you had a rough weekend, I hope that you are feeling better even if only a little. I imagine it must all feel very raw at the moment?

Theres no rush to make a decision on the seperation, so take whatever time you need to feel more at ease with it and to make sure its a decision not a reaction.

I often find it helpful to make sure we distinguish between a decision and an outcome. we can make good decisions and have terrible outcomes and we can make terrible decisions and have good outcomes, but in general good decisions make a good outcome more likely (just not necessarily the outcome we anticipated). Its a slighlty rambly way of saying its best to let go of a specific outcome and focus on whether the decision is good based on the whole range of possible outcomes.

Irrespective we are here for you to help in anyway we can
