OP - Make it your priority #1 to find a therapist with BCBS. Otherwise, give the Women's Center in NOVA a call to see if any of there therapists take it or can refer you to someone.  Otherwise I think they have a sliding fee scale.  It may just be worth it to your health to spend some of the money you earn on this item for yourself.  You need support to regain your own identity and self-worth as an adult first of all AND then a strategy for finding "your voice" and viewpoint about how things are with DH.  Then moving on to the topics at hand which seem to be SD's continuing disrespectful and resentful behavior to you, her princess-like treatment, and mostly her "crossing the line" in terms of your personal relationship with your DH and you.  It is definitely time for house rules of basic behavior and task chores to be set for all three of you - or you must learn to just let go what is inappropriate for you to be doing all of.

How you and your husband handle learning to communicate honestly about your relationship, your desires in his eyes for a family etc. will take a longer time.  You may need to be open about what the options might be for yourself.  Be sure as in other posting threads that you do have a clear idea of your family's finances and that you would not be left financially high and dry, if you decided on a separation.  Right now you are "Cinderella" passive DH and angry SD and so there is something very wrong with this picture.[/quote]
