Does this mean it is over?

I will keep this short. Basically I have been unhappy in my relationship for a while however recently it’s really got to the point where I have thought about leaving, making plans etc.

We have 3 young children, youngest is 2 so hardly get anytime together and I have depression and anxiety so I always wonder whether the way I feel is actually due to my relationship or my mental health.

He does very little with the children and I am the type to “put up and shut up”. We are more friends than anything else I would say. He has actually not really done anything “wrong” I just don’t feel happy anymore and that’s what I feel makes it worse. I don’t want to hurt him.

The other night we got into bed and he tried to initiate sex and I felt repulsed. I literally have no idea what to do for the best? Do I stay in this situation and hope it gets better for the sake of the children? Or risk being absolutely heartbroken and regretting the decision if I leave?

basically looking for ANY advice - I know only I can make this decision but anyone else who has went through something similar . X

Are you on antidepressants ?
Are you having any CBT/counselling ?

Thank you for replying. Yes I have had CBT & also take ADs . I have long-standing mental health issues which started 10 years ago when my first child was born and I don’t think have truly ever been resolved.
