Stress is a killer Card, and if they don’t know how to handle their stress they destroy their lives in MlC or depression or likewise. My H was buried by the stress of his work and this all started after a big promotion and step up into a big management position. Working lots of hours, getting angry at people at work and taking it out on me and the family, whingeing about being burdened by the stress of life. Never any self care or time out, de-stressed with alcohol. It really was his own mess. Their love is in there it’s just buried and burdened.
I could be wrong here but don’t be super man. Don’t try and do everything and relieve W of her responsibilities as a mother.you’ll burn out, you’ll resent everything. I made the same mistake with H early in trying to do everything lighten his load appease him in everything and he was just cruising through and I absolutely hated it. Might be time to have some sort of schedule so you have some time alone too and also maybe you need a holiday. Don’t you love the way they feel the world owes them all this freedom and holidays 🙄 it’s utter BS. Sorry I could be wrong as I’m further along but I hated doing everything I burnt out massively and resented H so much for enjoying his freedom and basically his ability to revert to a 17 year old slob
Anyway there’s a great app called “insight timer” it’s all these free meditations. There’s some fantastic sleep meditations. I would put that on every night and would help. Even if I woke up a few hours later There’s some very calming soothing voices
