2lt, your sitch has similarities to mine. The up and down emotions are rough at times. From all of the experiences I've read here, and even my own, it does get better with time. Not good, but better.
I'm learning that this process, regardless of the outcome, will need much patience and time.
Keep up the good work for yourself and your children. There really are some great people here with excellent advice.
I would say best of luck to you, but it is not luck that we need. It is skills, patience, and time.
Stay strong.
