My DH is leaving tomorrow after years of stress

[Thisorthatwhoknows]

That’s it. I told him I want him to go. After years of strain I’ve done it. I had the worst panic attack yesterday and ended up speaking to the crisis team. I just realised/accepted how much I’ve been putting his needs over mine and the children’s. It’s hurts though. Please tell me it gets easier? He won’t tell me where he’s going so that’s making me anxious.

This is after he suffered trauma, self medication with drugs and alcohol and denial in getting help. See my other threads for the detail. I’m too tired to explain again.

You are over incredibly brave and strong lady to have come through so much. This is the right thing to do. Yes, it will get easier, in the meantime be very very gentle with yourself. Please lean on your support network. One day at a time, you only need to deal with today. You really deserve some peace

Sorry you’re having a tough time. X

Oh love you have been through the mill.

You’ve got to put yourself and the kids first, and somehow find a way to let him go. Easier said than done but you are doing the right thing, are you getting some support from friends and family and from your GP or someone?

@Chloe4658 I’m so sorry to read this. My first thought is he has someone else on the go and a small child cramps his style. 💐

I remember your previous posts @Thisorthatwhoknows

Such a hard situation for your family but it seems like you all tried your best in an impossible situation.

Stay strong and it will get easier

My XH left for OW 3 years ago.

My anxiety dramatically reduced the moment he left. No longer was l walking on eggshells around him, trying to keep things calm between the boys so he didn't get annoyed.

A huge weight was lifted
