I had to take care of the kids, but he didn't do any laundry or dishes while I was in the hospital last week.
The hospital got me through the crisis, but I am still pretty depressed. I don't have the energy to come home and organize my home. I even had to help him put on clean sheets on the bed last night which is one thing I requested he do before I come home so that I could have that wonderful clean bed feeling.

He said he would work a short day and come right home after his morning meeting and without checking in with me to see how I was doing, he took on a client and he still isn't home after 5 p.m. He also told his parents he would go over to their house to do some things for them.

I made my needs known and I feel ignored, unloved and alone. I should have just stayed at the hospital.

I just wanted you to know that you are not alone in how you are feeling.I have been there too.My ex husband i think (or at least i tried to tell myself this is the way it was) tried to do things to help me at home my first day but it was my mom who really kept things together for me.Yes,i am 38 and i still am very lucky to say my mom is alive and amazing....that makes me one very lucky chic.My kids were completely unable to "get it".....i had a 15yr old boy,10 yr old girl and 4 yr old girl.Now,actually 3 yrs later,my now 18yr old has cut me out of his life due to me being sick then...but thats another story.Do you have any close family members who could maybe pitch in for awhile til you get back on track....a sister or mom,or maybe a best friend??? Just hang in there ok.....hopefully when everything kicks in(meds,therapy....) like the other poster above me said,everything will start to look and feel better.Hugs to you.....
