Today H packs up and moves out. There's nothing more to this post other than my own outlet. We've been together 6.5 years but married just 5months. We have one child together, and I have one from a previous relationship. I own the house. We shouldn't have got married what a waste of money, time and emotion.

It's done now op don't beat yourself up. Do you want to separate?

Jobjobjob · 10/03/2018 08:01

Was the relationship in trouble abs you got married because you thought you could save it?

I think that's quite common.

Don't beat yourself up it's done now and better to be happy and alone.

Thanks

I've got a hospital appointment this morning, it's my severely disabled brother's birthday today and at 28 he doesn't even know what a birthday is, I've got a splitting headache, I'm shouting at the kids. I'm burnt out.

Sorry to hear you feel this way, the breakdown of your relationship/marriage isn’t help.

Be kind to yourself - deal with it all an hour at a time. Sit the kids down and tell them mummy is not feeling great today - can you give them small chores to do?

Sorry to read about your brother - do you usually celebrate his birthday or is it a low key event.

Hope the hospital appt goes to plan

Everyone feels like this sometimes.

Try to deal with one thing at a time - if today is going to be difficult, put as much of everything else on hold as you can (I know looking after children can’t be put on hold, but everything else).

It will get better. Grit your teeth.
