Can I have a moan?

[whereiscaroline]

It's been a shit week. DS is having a horrible time at school due to SEN. I have missed loads of work this week. It's been stressful and shit and I NEEDED this weekend to rest and recuperate before another school / work week begins.

So far this weekend, nothing has gone to plan and I've had no downtime. Went to bed early, finally fell asleep at 1.30am. Was woken by DP getting home from night out at 4am. I'm laying here wide awake ever since.

I can practically feel Monday ticking back round and I'm disproportionately upset that I've not had the rest I really, really needed

Can you do something different with today? Walk? Drift away with a book?
I’m awake and feeling sick inside because my husband is leaving me after 29 years of marriage. Reading about other people’s worries is distracting for me so selfishly - thank you!

Oh @Seaton I'm sorry, my moaning is now put firmly into perspective. Do you want to talk about what's going on? Is your husband there now?

Tomorrow DS has a sports fixture in the morning and I will try to coax him for a walk with me in the afternoon. Unfortunately he's becoming more and more withdrawn so even something like that may be a challenge but I'll try.

What do you have planned for tomorrow?

Oh my goodness, that's awful @Seaton ~ can we help in any way? Hand hold? Any advice?

OP, I'm sorry your week has been a crock of shit. I hope you get to relax today

We have to tell our 23 year old son today. H has agreed that he’ll live away during the week and come home at weekends. We’re going tell S that we’re still trying , but I have no hope that this is H’s intention. He says he’s tried enough and I think this is just a gentler way for him to leave.

I'm so very sorry @Seaton

This must be really hard for you

Have you any real life support?
