Yes I'm awake...got my insomnia back. Sorry to hear that...when did it happen?

Psychoticbreak · 19/11/2023 04:33

Also just over a breakup and have insomnia. What happened are you ok?

HappyasLarrynot · 19/11/2023 04:34

@Namechangeforthisonly10 sorry to hear about your insomnia. Things been rocky for a while but I thought we were working on it. Husband has been messaging/having an affair with another woman. I’ve no idea what the truth is and I’m devastated. Have older kids (not his) who are angry with him. It’s just a mess.

I have been through a break up and yes is awful. There is no easy answer as everything is so long and painful, finding out things and what to d8 etc. just take time, lean on friends and accept it is painful

Thank you and sorry you’ve been through it. This is my second marriage - my previous husband cheated on me as well but I definitely don’t remember being this devastated. I can’t eat or think straight. Managed to get through an event yesterday and then got home and lost the plot at him.

I am just totally thrown by how upset I am about it all.

Tilllly · 19/11/2023 04:42

Oh no, I'm so sorry

Where is he now?

HappyasLarrynot · 19/11/2023 04:43

He’s in the spare room for now.

OP posts:
HappyasLarrynot · 19/11/2023 04:45

My kids are being brilliant but I just keep crying. I can’t stop.

Try to make a few notes on your phone

About what's happened, how you feel, what you need to do

Give it 15 minutes max, then put a podcast or something on and try to fall asleep for a couple of hours.

You need to take good care of yourself right now

HappyasLarrynot · 19/11/2023 04:48

Thank you @Tilllly I’ve got the GP on tv so hopefully will nod off in front of that. It just hurts so much.

Sorry to hear this. What a knob he is.

Namechangeforthisonly10 · 21/11/2023 06:30

How are you doing @HappyasLarrynot ?

HappyasLarrynot · 21/11/2023 19:14

@Namechangeforthisonly10 thank you for asking. Not as many tears today but focusing on me and my kids. Have been for a run which I haven’t done in a long time and that has helped. How are you doing??

Oh I'm over mine a long time ago...the ending wasn't bad like yours but encouragement is when you come out the other side it is much better. Glad you are feeling a teeny bit better. Will take time and tears afraid to say
