I’d tread real lightly with your high and mighty CW. You’re a WAS who left his W while she was depressed.
I left my W and took custody when she physically abused my son, after giving her 1.5 years to improve, after getting her emergency psychiatric help so she didn't kill herself (and the children). I make no pretense at being high and mighty, and I may have a broken picker as BL42 well knows, but I'm not ashamed of being a WAS, and I know how in the decade after D I got from a place of anger to positive cooperation. It's a journey. We each share our experiences and BL42 decides what works for him.
