[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 221325, member: 3419"] Hi Nancy, I think most of us have hit that low point at one time or another, and wondered whether we should throw out the baby with-the bathwater. And the tub, too. I would sit down with-husband and ask him to please be aware of his negativity in front of the kids. When you've got individuals with-depression and anxiety, they pick up on others' emotions and absorb more than they need to. He needs to understand that. with-o knowing much of your history, I can't say whether it's better with-him or with-o him, but I agree with-the others here--take a break for a weekend or something and give yourself some breathing room. You may need a weekend break every 5 wks or so, or even more often. Then make a decision. Counseling is always good. The therapist cannot, of course, lead you in one direction or another, but can help you sort through your emotions and values and decide what is most important to you. Sort of a marital version of The Explosive Child--Basket A, B, and C. :) That will help you make a decision. I hear your dismay, anger and loneliness. {{Hugs}} [/QUOTE]
