Hi,
New to net mums and posting so please be gentle!
My husband of 6 weeks (partner of 6 years) and father of our toddler left on Monday night with the words "I'm done" he left that night, went to his mums and came the next day while I wasn't in the house and removed ALL of his sole posessions.
We have since spoken and he has said he has been unhappy for years, felt forced into getting engaged, (4 years ago) having our son and sick of the arguing. I have struggled the last few years with my mental health, starting with anxiety and very recently being diagnosed with depression, which I feel has been the main contributor to our relationship being difficult. He hadn't once told me these feelings to allow me to work on my relationship with him/to get any help with my depression (as I thought I was managing) before just deciding to end it and I'm so hurt. I feel he's made a rash decision and is plucking reasons out of obscurity - maybe to hurt me to make it easier.
I have made steps to getting help being described antidepressants and awaiting counselling. I'm also trying to minimise contact - other than about our son - and pushing myself to do things out of my comfort zone.
I guess I just need some comfort, to know that it gets better and I can be strong for my son. I'm still hopeful that he may want a reconciliation once he's had space and time. Appreciate any comments guys
