Life feels a mess...

Fairly newly separated after a massive betrayal - still very much in love with my Husband, but trying to heal.

Job is stressing me out, house is driving me mad.

I'm trying so hard to be grateful that I have a safe roof over my head etc...but I also am aware we have outgrown our home and I cannot afford to rent anywhere else. Rents in my local area are around £1300.00pcm for what we would need, so I am stuck in my ex-marital home because the rent is lower than that.

I am feeling very overwhelmed when I think ahead. I didn't plan on being a single parent. I supported my Husbands career for all those years and once I returned to work, he done the dirty on me.
I feel resentful and trapped by my circumstances - I don't know what to do with myself or how to better my situation Sad

Needed to get that off my chest. Thank you

That sounds hard. Do you have children? What would you like to change other than your actual home? Are you in a position to change things around, decorate, freshen it up so it feels like a different place? Even new bed linen helps.

What about work - are you happy there? Is there anything you could do to improve that so you don’t feel stuck?
