It was heart breaking to read your post. I think you are an amazing person to not give up on your kids and stick to your responsibilities even when your partner bailed.

I can only imagine how difficult this phase must be for you. I am raking my mind up to see if I have anything helpful to say , but failing miserably!

Perhaps try a support group for parents ? who better to understand and share wisdom than people in the same phase.

Hire help atleast for an hour or two every couple of days to take care of your kids .Even if you don't do anything fancy, if you are able to turn off and blow some steam off, it should help.I know it may feel like it wont mean a lot, but it surely will make some difference.



I love talking to my dad and getting his advice too.
