Lockdown is hurting my marriage

[MaxwellTheThird]

My DH is a wonderful guy, truly. It's just I'm really struggling ATM and I don't know what to do about it.

I feel like I almost need a break from him. He has ADHD, for 13 years I've adapted to life with him but now it is wearing on me. I'm finding I have zero patience, I'm irritated by him a lot, I don't want to kiss or have sex with him. I'm well aware I'm not perfect and have plenty of my own faults.

I'm pretty stressed. I'm self employed, my small business is all but destroyed. I have no income, no gov support and whilst he is amazing and helping me out, I just feel like a complete turd. I still can't imagine my life without him in it, and I don't want to call time on my marriage either.

I'm hoping it is just this past year, and that it has got to me, and there will be light at the end of the tunnel. I have spoken to DH about how I feel roughly, but he doesn't know how bad I feel. I just don't really know what to do.

I think the first thing is to sort out your career/income. Your self esteem has taken a huge blow and that stress won’t be helping

This whole post is about you. Anything to do with him is by proxy. I think in these times its completely natural to feel defeated, useless, crap *add any other derogatory adjectives. I think you need to be kind to urself. You need to work on you. On alternatives or the business seeing the current situation. Reinvent , improve, change... I dont know what's needed there from the info but theres nothing wrong with u and probably with him either. It's the circumstances surrounding u. XxxxxX
