I'm upstairs working and all you can hear is screaming and crying.
OH been up since 6 this morning trying to buy a PS5 he obviously can't get one so he's in a fit off rage like a kid.

Poor DD & DS crying because they want juice and breakfast. I feel tempted to just take the day off but I won't be paid.

I feel like a fucking awful mum!

He should of got up when I did and sorted the kids out but he's been in fucking bed.

My shift started at 8 the kids got up soon as they heard me go into the office so I couldn't do breakfast then. He does a bit of reselling so makes some extra cash for himself but he did buy it on the credit card.

I have left him before and I ended up coming back because I was lonely if I could get over that lonely hump it would be great but I have no support.

It sounds like he is pulling you all down.

OP you are doing everything for everyone whilst he does nothing but buy stuff on credit cards and scream in your face?
Is not having the feeling of loneliness warrant him treating you like this?

You also have a DS & DD that are witness to this too, if your friend told you all this was happening to her, would you help her to leave or just tell her that's its okay?

You mention not having support but you have your mum to talk to, studying would in theory mean you have access to support workers through your course & you have a full time job. Is there anyone there you can reach out to also? What about family liason at the children's school/nursery?
These lockdown restrictions are testing times most definitely but you are worth more than this!
