Sorry you are going through this. I agree with a lot of what was said….
- you have much to be thankful for (I know it is hard to see - I try to keep a gratitude journal to remind me daily because it can be tough)
- D17 should have to get therapy if she is suicidal
- keep working on you (the working out is great)
I just wanted to share that my H moved out in October (over 5 months ago after 3 months of living in turmoil). Honestly, I don't know how you and W are even managing to live together after 10 months of the drama that surrounds our situations. Being separated physically has helped me become a better mom, stop being incredibly stressed by the situation and small things, stop being so enraged in front of the kids, work on my 180's and GAL goals. While my H has filed for D and we look headed there, being separated has allowed me to breathe again and find my voice again. I feel healthier. Your kids probably can feel the tension in the home - maybe it will help everyone.
I wish there was more that I could say to comfort you. Put the focus on you and your kids. You are stronger than you know.
