Hi Jane

I am so sorry you had to go through this. I really feel for you and I totally relate. i am exactly the same as you - I am always told by friends that I am "too nice" but they don't always mean it as a compliment. They want me to stand up for myself more. I get so emotional when it involves my son and I am currently in the middle of a really nasty situation involving my son and some other families which is so upsetting that I just dissolve into tears every time it is discussed. I am a mess.

I just want you to know that I relate so well to every word you wrote. I have been seeing my T for 18 months too but I think I am in a worse place now than when we started!

I send you love and strength. You are not alone.
Keep strong

I work in customer service where people are vile to me all day then I go home and my H is vile and my friends.... they are just not there for me. I know what you mean about the drink too - I did this over the weekend and although it felt good for a while it is wrong and not good. Jane, I relate so much. xx
