Good afternoon
Bit of a back story,, 9 year relationship ended just over 4 months ago (mutual decision), we have 2 DS together. He met someone else within 2 weeks of us splitting and I did not handle it very well.
Everything got too much for me, the responsibility of being a single mum, working full time, getting used to being on my own caring for the kids etc and then him being happy with someone else so soon.
I got depressed and I was not eating, sleeping and was signed off work for a bit, i been through a rollacoaster of emotions (not helped by the ex harping on how happy his new GF is making him) while im left holding the baby, literally.
I tried Antidepressants and they did not agree with me, anyways my GP signed me up for some counselling (8 sessions in total) and I have had 2 sessions with him and i think he is great and is helping me.
Now that Christmas is out of the way i feel a lot more positive, for once i feel Happy and the fog has lifted, I am looking forward to the future and the rose tinted glasses regarding my ex has well and truly fallen.
I have a counselling session scheduled for tomorrow (not had one for over 2 weeks due to the Christmas break) but i don't feel like i need it. I don't think i have anything to talk/cry about. I have been using his methods to help me if i feel low and so far its been working.
Do I cancel or still go, i am not sure how it all works, and i would hate to be taking someone else space who could really use it. even though i feel OK now i might feel crap next week :(
Please advise WWYD
