Having major marital issues at the moment. I might eventually post on Relationships, but for now all I want to share is that we're on the rocks, DH has been a major twunt, and I'm currently allowing him to stay but things are strained to say the least. I'm not even sure I want to write down what I've found. I'm not talking to him. Haven't slept or eaten well in days, I've lost weight and feel shit. Have an 11 month old boy, I'm a SAHM, and no friends in the area.

Please give me ideas to spark myself up a bit. I feel flat. Haven't even got the energy to get dressed. All I can do is play with my son and go for the odd walk to the park (when I feel able to get dressed).

Any ideas or anything to cheer me up would be great.

Just to add, he's not abusive and very sorry and apologetic, so I'm perfectly safe. Nothing to worry about in that scenario.

Butterscotch angel delight. Made with cream and ice cream.

With a side of chocolate. And a baileys. And a favourite comedy series.

Sometimes days are just shite and I’m sorry this is one of those days for you.

Whatever your favourite treat is, have it. Even if you are eating your body weight in jaffacakes. Sometimes you just need a treat.

The worst it has ever done for me is give me a massive harris.

And you are blessed with a bairn so cuddles. Lots of them.

Concentrate on you and the little one for today.

The twunt stuff can wait (hopefully) until you have the physical and mental strength to deal with it. Flowers

Thank you for replying. These are lovely ideas. I'm taking my boy down for a wander in the shops, and I'll see if I can get some angel delight. Haven't had that since I was a little one!

I hate eating when I'm stressed, food tastes like cardboard so something treaty and tasty will at least appease my taste buds and lift the old blood sugar.

Gosh I am rubbish with times like this. Going to make a den with little one when we get home, and be silly. Might attempt some healthy food thrown in at some point!

Wishing you fun and silliness for the rest of the day OP. 😊

Thank you so much. ❤️

Reached the bit of the day I was dreading now. Babe fallen asleep and I don't know what do do with myself. I don't have the energy for a fight with H, so just sat in bed. I've got wine downstairs but don't know if I can be bothered moving. Don't know if I should order food in because then I have to move.

Ate my treats which helped, but now I don't know what to do with myself. I feel like the last two years of my life have been a lie and I don't know how to deal with it. H and I had been watching a really good series together but I don't know if I want to watch that alone.
