I just booked a holiday for myself and the kids next month. Feel empowered and sad simultaneously Really bad weekend - had a huge verbal fight with recovering AW. Wants evething to keep going as is. As is means me sleeping in the spare room, doing all the cooking and shopping (despite a week of being stricken with the flu) AW has not moved from bed with flu and ? for two weeks. I am emotionally and physically exhausted.

The AW mood swings and sole focus oneself (whilst I understand from reading is normal?) should not excuse lack of compassion towards others. I think I have been asked once in 3 months - "how are you going or feeling"

Thank god for the kids - thier hugs are keeping me going

Sounds like a holiday is just what you need anodes. I hope you get some time to take it easy and you RAW has time to reflect.

I am so glad you are taking the opportunity to get away and decompress.

I hope the vacation gives you some clarity, and much needed peace. HUGS to you and the kiddos.
