[quote=Anonymous]Oh, honey. The situation you describe isn't sustainable. I've been there. I tried for nearly 3 years, doing it all, trying to get my XDH to get the help he needed so he, again, would be the person I loved so much and who was such a great partner. He refused. Still, I tried. We had 3 small kids and I WOH full time. I did everything and ended up developing depression myself and going on an SSRI (should have done that sooner). When I finally realized that nothing was going to change and 'this' was going to be my life unless I did something, I filed for divorce. Although some said it was a mistake, it wasn't. My life got immensely easier when I no longer had to accommodate XDH's uncontrolled mental illness and had no expectations of him. Although it was easy being a single mom, it was far easier than when he was around. Hugs. [/quote]
