I have reached my limit, it seems.
I have arrived at a point where I feel so emotionally exhausted, I end up going to sit in my car, pretending to run an errand, so I can have a cry.
Nothing horrible going on, I just seem to have nothing left to give.
DH is having a hard time, again, at work and has black moods again. and I have to keep the home nice for the kids, be the cheerful one, the supportive one, organising everything, I just give give give.
But nothing left now.
I can still be giving and loving to the kids, and the dog. But I have told DH I can't give him any more.
If he says "I love you" I just feel rage, and I want him to stop saying it, as he just says it when he needs ME to say that to him, IYSWIM.
I feel angry and exhausted. How can I go back to being me.
(DH is recovering alcoholic, has been unemployed, moody and things have generally been difficult the past few years. New job now, he gives it his all, then takes all his frustration and anger home.He is a difficult man. He loves us, but I just want to run away.)
