On May 4th my husband of 24 years told me he was "done". He wanted out and I had no say. We have three children 21, 18, and 10. Apparently he had been telling my 18 year old for about a week prior of his plans. To put that burden on her is unfathomable to me. We of course did not have a perfect marriage, but I did not see it coming. I always thought we were the couple that would always work it out. Since then I have been a wreck. Depressed and prone to anxiety attacks. I have been to the doctor and the therapist a couple of times each and have begun medication to try and help although I am still not finding the relief I would hope. I can't eat or sleep. I have lost 24 pounds in two weeks. One week after my husband blindsided me, we broke the news to my 10 year old. We got him through it, although it was awful and in some ways telling him lifted some of the anxiety I was feeling. That was until the next day when he told me he had met someone and wanted to "pursue" a relationship with her. Once again, my life went spiraling out of control. I am going day to day in a fog. To add to that is the fact that he was the breadwinner and me, a stay at home mom, so I feel totally out of control in that area too. He has been paying me enough to cover the bills so far, but who knows how that will go down the road. Tonight is the first night my son has gone to stay with him and to say I am a wreck is an understatement. I did well in front of him, but lost it for about 30 min after. I just can't believe this is my life now and I had no say. Sorry for the length. Seems hard to condense so many years into a short post. Thanks for listening.
