Fiding it difficult to live in a house with my ex
Because my ex lost his job, we are still living together in the same house. We have made the decision to divorce and I am still trying to make peace with that. On some days, I am pretty good with it. On other days, I have a complete break down. It is particularly hard, because my ex is not really speaking to me, except in the presence of the daughter. I am finding this super stressful. I used to get a break at least, when he went to work. Now I get no break. . .I don't even want to come home after work. I cry on the way home. Last night I had a migraine so bad that I couldn't function. Not even an ounce of empathy from my ex. . .
To top it all off, because he is not working, he is taking over all the parenting duties (while I slave away at work). This I am finding hard, because my only motivation to get out of bed for the day was her.
I am feeling very depressed currently. I see my counselor today and I am hoping that will help. I am not sure that I am going to make it. My emotions are all over the place and I cannot get anything done at work. I start teaching next week and I am not sure how I am going to manage it. I cannot even work on the syllabus.
