[quote=Anonymous]This is a really difficult situation. My husband and I went through a similar phase. So I tend to think of marriage as having eras if you will. When home life is incredibly difficult, having work that you deeply care about can be really helpful in keeping you feeling like a functioning human being in 1 front. We have had personal health issues in addition to our neurodiverse kids, so we have had caring roommate phases, and even 1 phase where I quit my job to prioritize kid stuff in high school. Throughout our focus remains on supporting our kids to the best of our ability. I recognize this isn’t ideal personally, but we can live with it. We are also really good friends and we like hearing about each other’s work. For now that is enough. Good luck figuring out what works for you. I have found that a therapist for me is more helpful than hanging out too much with my friends who are divorcing. Their lives are very different than mine at home.[/quote]
