Shell- I totally totally understand where you are at and I think you're really strong to come here and bare everything and be so honest. I've been (and at moments lately still) right where you are. I have a lawyer, have met with her but have not filed and there are many reasons for this, not the least of which are guilt (whether that's rational or not, it is what it is).

You got blindsided by the intervention and then to not have your parents backing you up/offering moral support... That's got to be so hard.

You have taken a lot of positive steps toward protecting yourself and your son and none of that is negated by your waiting to file...

You are a great Dad, you are overwhelmed and rightfully so by a terrible situation and please don't be hard on yourself.

Your post gives me courage to know that if I falter and can't follow through right now, I'm not the first nor the last to do so.

Thinking of you and sending you warmth...
