Hi, not so much AIBU, just looking for some moral support.
I’m 46 and I have two dcs. DS is 13 with HFA and dd is 9. We moved area four years ago with DHs job. It was a difficult move for DS because of his ASD. We handled it very carefully and DS has flourished. He’s really happy in school etc and dd has had a difficult time with bullying etc but she’s ok now.
DHs job is moving again this time to Oman. He’s going next week for about five months. I’m gutted. We’ve been together for thirty years and it’s our silver wedding anniversary this year which he will be away for. It was fantastic opportunity for him with his career, extra money with the possibility of promotion etc then back to the uk with work by about October when he will be working in commuting distance of home. He wants to go and I am supporting him but I feel very tearful. I have absolutely no support with my dcs. I’ve raised them virtually single handedly as dh works so hard. To put things into context, i have anxiety and depression that I’m medicated for. Dh wants me to visit in August for a few days with the dcs. I really want to go but I’m terrified of flying, I’ve flown loads of time but I’m frightened of it. I don’t like being so anxious about everything, it’s not who I am. I need to find some balls TBH but I’m not sure where to start. Any moral support out there please?
