Hi Hannabeee , thank you for your kind words. I got the short end of the stick as far as everything is concerned.
1. I didn't want a long drawn out expensive divorce so I pretty much gave her everything just to get out.
2. She brainwashed my children , portraying me as the sole reason for all the conflict between me and her.
3. I was abandoned by them all. They treat me now like I never existed.
The part that I'm trying to get over in therapy is how I'm not getting any credit for anything good I did.
And also how they will never admit any wrong doing or say "I'm sorry for hurting you ".
They have no idea or concept of what real mental illness is and the struggle I've been through my whole life.
I don't want their sympathy , just an honest adult conversation.
BTW : If it takes me another 40 years to move forward then I will have to continue this conversation from the other side !
