[quote=Anonymous]Oh OP I am sorry that you are going through this tough period.  I was married to someone similar. At first I felt like I had to stick by him through all the craziness - but I was far more committed to his treatment (bipolar) than he was, and he took terrible advantage of me.  I finally saw a lawyer during one of his manic highs when he was off doing something "for his soul."

The divorce took awhile, but being a single mom has been a million times more stable and rewarding than I would every have guessed.  The first year or two was financially really, really tough - but I am so proud of the life that I've built for my child and myself.  It would never, ever have been possible with the amount of energy that I was putting into placating my ex-husband and all his self-absorbed whims.  Now, I know what I'm responsible for - everything - and don't have to deal with all the unpredictable crazy that my husband brought into our lives.

Seriously, it is SO much better on this side of it all.  Im glad to hear that you are meeting with a lawyer, and I hope you find a good path forward with your kiddos. [/quote]
