You don't say how old your son is but he is your first priority. What you have done or going to do should not impact his little world unless you have a damn good explaination that he can understand and not feel that issues are his fault.

Oh honey what an awkward one. Good that you were honest but yucky time to do it. It would have hurt whatever day though xx

He is too young to understand adultury and mental abuse. Sorry but me and hers constant fights and meanness have already impacted his little world. He is 6 and awesome.

yeah....you coulda waited a day.....

Oh well, at least you got it off your chest. This point you got a few options. Beat yourself up all day for being honest...OR... think about what you would feel like if the proverbial shoe was on the other foot, and treat her like you would want to be treated in the same situation.

Kinda sucks, but I learned through other means that it's best to do the next right thing. and that is hard to do for me. I hope you work all this out, and don't beat yourself up too badly

You didn't do anything wrong. I don't believe it's the meds. You are in love and happy and to dam bad who knows it. that's ok maybe the divorce can move a little more quickly.
Don't let anyone rob you of your happiness. She will move on as well.

Shawn, you're doing what you feel is best. Often that results in our feeling bad. That seems to be the way it works for everyone.

When I was a child my parents divorced. Another woman was involved. My Dad is now dead and while part of me understands another part of me is still angry at him. I felt for many years that it was my fault and I think you could walk on eggs trying to do the right thing, but your son will still be affected because children take everything to heart, right or wrong. Tell your son you love him and SHOW him that you love him.
Listen to him and talk to him and things will be alright. Not perfect, but alright.

Also Shawn your son will notice a happy daddy. Your enthusiasm will spread and kids like to see thier parents smile and be joyess. Are you spending TG with your new girlfriend?

I am with the stbx right now, well she stepped out. But I just felt I had to get it out the new girl isn't physically in the picture so far (long story) and wont be for at least a few months. I was going to leave anyway it just ended up being a bit different than I had planned

Don't Shrink your ggod mood. Have a nice day and think of all the new opportunities you have coming up:) Just have fun.

Just keep loookin forward, looking back never does any good.. unless ur making an inventory of 'what not to do'... but i don't think that's necessary,, you know the different outcomes.. and u chose that one..it's out of the way, so don't worry about it.. Like u said she already knew.
i know she's not mrs. innocent herself.. so she can't get mad...
I don't know if it's necessarily the Lamictal, maybe ur hypomanic,, that's the only way i describe doing things that aren't all 'ME'... i have always taken my lamictal with a mood stabilizer, and never had that prob. Just watch your sleep.. i went a few months with four or less hours a nite, and luckily didnt go manic...
i love ya,, so take of urself!!

I hope it aint the lamictal because Im supposed to double my dose starting Sat.
I dont think im hypomanic because I sleep ALOT and aint that *ahem frisky!
