I feel like I’m going to break

I wanted to separate. Addictions and other issues.
I can’t cope with the sadness. I’m broken. I feel like I’m going to vomit.
I’ve said to him we can view it as a trial and see but he says no he wants to separate. He won’t address addictions but he says our problems are more than them.
I feel like I shouldn’t have started this. I honestly feel like I’ll never be ok. This is awful

Big hugs op

Sending you really big hugs. Can you be signed off work with stress for a period. That’s no reasonable.
Do you have friends in real life you can speak with? Or call something like Samaritans to speak to speak someone.
Try to find very small things to do that look after yourself

I don't know many details about your situation, but please remember it won't always feel like this. I felt such despair about my situation last week I honestly could not see either of us ever being ok, but there are glimmers of hope even now. You suggested separating for a reason - there must have been something unhealthy for you to do that. Try to hold onto that, and remember you are more than just the other half of a couple. Do you have some support around you?

You will be ok. You can get through this and you will be better for it when you come out the other side x. But the process will be the same as grieving a loss, try to be gentle with yourself and make some time for a few treats for you. Hugs 🤗
