Hey guys,

I finally did it. I kicked out my depressed drug addict husband he’s currently in emergency accommodation and then the housing team will help him move into permanent accommodation.

I am a mixture of relief and sadness. I just wanted a family so much, this is my second time as a single parent so I know how lonely it can be.

no real point to this post really just wanted to share some grief. I have 3 children 12. 6 and 10 months old and a Labrador. I’m a midwife but handing my notice in and not returning due to not being able to work childcare and work.

I need another job, even just a few hours a week will do for now. but I have no idea what to do, im so stressed by it all. Life is going to be damn hard and skint for a while.

You have got this. Are there community support roles you could do? Or retrain as a health visitor? I've been on my own mostly the past 5 years. Most of the time my kids keep me busy but I do missing having that someone. I do keep trying with old but I'm not going to tolerate any poor behaviour. I would rather be on my own that have substandard partner in life. I hope I'm setting the children a good example.
