I went to see a counselor for myself and she asked me what would make me "unstuck", it's like I'm waiting for something to happen but I don't know what that is.
As I recounted my marriage history, I sound pathetic because I have stayed with a man that I have not been happy for years. I still can't get to the place where I file. I am done with him 100% but for some stupid reason I think I should stay for my son's sake when deep down I know it's not the right thing to do either.
How can I see how stupid it is to stay but feel so scared to take the next step?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I guess it was the old "NOBODY'S worth this BS" moment.
Until two weeks ago...I experienced the absolute worst week of my life, my health was a disaster and my husband was not there for me AT ALL. He just ignored it. After years and years...THAT was my last straw. Its the weirdest thing, but it was what I finally needed to flip that switch in my mind and heart and know its time to move on. Its different for each of us...that pivotal moment will come for you and you'll finally be at a point where you can move forward. Take care of yourself and be gentle with yourself...its a horrible process and sometimes it just takes time.

Good luck.
I just started a womens divorce group that meets every other week for 12 weeks (brings me through the holidays - whoopee!). There was one woman in the group who was 'stuck' for over 2 yrs. It happens. I know that I need counseling to figure out why I am stuck. Sometimes I don't even like to post here on the Breakup & Divorce Community because I feel like such a fraud - not moving forward with my divorce.
I keep waiting for 'something' to happen that will force the issue. That something, I know, will need to come from me. So anyway - I understand and you are not alone.
