So after a call to a mutual friend who has been in contact with W, I broke the rules and sent a photo of our two young sons and also a message of support as she is being discharged from the psychiatric hospital today too.
Not a single acknowledgement back from W. She called in a state - I have to go abroad this weekend to work and she had agreed to come home to look after the kids for the weekend, but was saying she will be homeless after that. I said I’d give her space in the house while she finds an apartment- to which she replied that the reason she had to go to the psychiatric hospital was there wasn’t any space for Her at home - it’s a five bedroom house! Also after four weeks of intense therapy and counselling she isn’t taking ownership of the fact that possibly the treason she had to seek help was due to her going on a four day bender and mixing alcohol with her medications. Hmm.
I feel like such a fool for breaking the rules- deciding that her fragile mental state means she must have been hurting for some friendly reassurances from me.
Back to thyou drawing board.
