I am feeling very very low. In addition to the A, I have been caring for my injured mom and fighting with my siblings. I feel homeless. WH divulged some new lies last weekend. Smaller ones - not full blown As. But they were flirty relationships with other women over the years that he concealed. Prior to that I had packaged the A as an anomaly. 3 months of abnormal behavior. Now it seems that it may have been pretty normal and I am questioning how I even fell in love with him.
Our MC says to ride it out. That the depression is a phase and that I should not make any decisions right now.
I guess I don't really have a question - just wanted to share. I feel quite alone in all of this. Oh, and we are going on vacation next week just the two of us.

Sounds like you need some down time.
You don't have to make any decisions right now...Keep an eye on the depression though. A phase will pass, but sometimes it sticks around.
He did tell you the truth, which is a good thing. Hopefully he'll continue doing good and you'll be able to start healing as well.

You have a hell of a lot on your plate right now. Please find some time to be kind to yourself. (((hugs)))

Your family situation is very similar to mine this year. I really struggled with this Bc the stress of my mom and family fighting intensified the A stress, bringing it back to the forefront.
Then I felt guilty for focusing and thinking so much about A when I had so much more severe family issues going on.
I just am wishing you strength to get through it all. Hugs and good luck.
In R? But how do you know it isn't another pack of lies?
