Please be gentle because I already know I'm a terrible person. Dh lost his dog a couple of nights ago and is devastated. I have been genuinely supportive for him, held him as he's cried, answered his phone and organised the business plus done all the sorting of the kids, house meals etc and sent away friends who called in as he didn't want to face them.
Thing is I'm struggling, my mh isn't good at the moment, my depression and anxiety have been creeping back a lot worse, I'm on new medication and have so much life admin to do. It's the anniversary of the process losing our twins (first one then a few weeks later the other) and he rarely acknowledges that and didn't get anywhere near as upset as over this dog, even though I almost died too. Rationally I know he was sort of dealing with things practically and looking after dd1 but I'm an awful person because I'm even thinking that. I feel like telling him to snap out of it he's had a couple of days to wallow, now feel sad but move on with life and actually parent your children and run your business. (I won't say it!) Please help me be kind and keep going
