Our S keeps asking me why I'm sad. I may be able to keep my composure in front of her most of the time...but around just him, I can't do it.
You got to do it. You got to try to spare him the trouble.

I just tell him that I miss him and mommy living with me. I can't explain any of this to him...or at least I don't know how.
I think you explained it pretty well.

She spent so much energy telling me to fix myself and I couldn't at the time. Now I'm working hard to make improvements, do DB, and I'm really not seeing anything helping the situation.
It is great that you are working on yourself. However, do not do it for her to notice. Do it for you and for your son. No matter how this ends you will be happy you have done it.
You are doing fine, you focus on the right things.
