You’re very right. To start off it’s about getting through each hour, then day then week until it slowly starts to ease. The pain and heartbreak may still be there, but so long as it isn’t holding you back then you’re heading the right way. Absolutely do something for yourself, you owe yourself the love you give freely to others. And a happy mama is happy kids.

That sounds about right re your h’s mood. Best not to mind read or focus upon his. Mine frequently dips from highs to manic lows, all part and parcel of their rollercoaster, and we don’t want a go on that.
