My husband got taken by a fraud and has left to do some ‘soul’ searching and work on ‘self-improvement’. He had a frightening breathing problem and was very ill and in hospital before leaving and needs to recover. However, he has left me handling most of his business problems-and they are BIG ones. My adult daughter is struggeling financially trying to raise her children alone, asks for help, but won’t take advice.My grown son has A.D.D. and anxiety & jumps from job to job. He refuses to go back to college to get a degree, lives in a small home he purchased, but can’t pay the bills. My youngest daughter lost her best friend in an accident and although is getting counseling and doing better still falls into tears at times. I’ve found toxic mold in the basement ceiling that I need to take care of-without the support of my husband. These are only some of the problems-there are more. I’m really exhausted and don’t have much to give them anymore. I need to give me ‘me’ for awhile! Advice?
FYI-I HAVE THE COUNSELOR, STOPPED ‘DOING’ FOR THEM, AM TAKING CLASSES IN INTERIOR DESIGN, AND I HAVE BEEN CONSIDERING THE HUSBAND THING. 30 PLUS YRS. OF MARRIAGE, 5 KIDS, 6 GRANDCHILDREN…IT’S A HARD HABIT TO BREAK BUT I’M ABOUT THERE….
