I’m really stuck in life. I have a cold husband who doesn’t care about my feelings, does nothing around the home, doesn’t really do anything to help with DD. I have no friends, actually I don’t know if that statement is true as I know lots of people but not sure if they my friends - we go for coffee and occasionally drinks. I have siblings but due to childhood SA I have drifted from them as they still talk to my abuser and act like it’s no big deal.

Ive been slowly putting on weight. t’s so hot but I’m wearing jeans and the thought of putting on a dress fills me with anxiety.

before people say leave DH obviously I will at some point but leaving right now I can’t cope with and will put me in a suicidal mind frame as how will I cope with moving out (it’s his home, in his name and his parents bought for him when he was younger) so please try to understand this when giving advice as I have no where to go. Can I have practical tips on how today I can feel better

Have you opened up to the people who might be your friends ?

would women’s aid be able to help you find a place to go ?

can you congratulate yourself on getting through this time one step at a time ? for recognising that he is trying to undermine you by always putting you down ? Seeing his criticism for what it is ? Even if it still hurts and you half believe it

congratulate yourself for caring for your daughter ? You got her blazer that’s good

Very short-term but 'summer trousers' rather than jeans. Lightweight covers your legs but much cooler
