First night in new house tonight

It’s my first night in my new house tonight since separating from my husband. He just dropped our youngest and I off with lots of my stuff. It really was horrific and traumatic. Ex started crying when he said goodbye to our youngest. Our oldest was there too and is staying with him tonight as they are on holiday tomorrow.

Nothing prepared me for how horrific that would be. It’s very quiet in the new house and I don’t know how I’m going to get through this first night.

Hand hold please. 🙏 How do you get through the first few difficult days? Ex’s reaction was so awful and sad.

I’m so sorry but it will get easier I am sure. Can you do something nice this evening with your youngest? X

Just sending a hug. It is always sad when something comes to an end. I am sure that you will weather this night and move on.

That sounds incredibly stressful, OP. It will get better, but today sounds tough.

How old are your children?

What is your new place like?

Change is very difficult and the human brain is programmed to absolutely hate it.

Give yourself time. You will get used to your new normal.
