Feeling Horrible

musictcher's picture

I feel absolutely horrible. My resentment for my SD is really effecting me and my relationship with my DH. I have gotten to the point I am pulling away from him. I don't mean to and don't want to but it is happening. I am going to counseling in a few weeks (earliest appointment I could get). I need help. My son is starting to notice that mommy is always upset and mad. I don't want to feel this way. I don't want to act this way. This is far from my character. My husband is really concerned about me and what is happening to me. How do I seperate myself from these feelings and be back to normal? How can I act like nothing has happened and continue on with my life the way it used to be?

OMG... I feel the same way. My SD has done so many evil things to me, that I lost count. It has really changed who I am as a person. I am on edge all of the time when I am home with the family. Its not my husband or oldest SD fault. But our youngest is such a tyrant to me that I always feel like I am being attacked.

I totally get you!!! I have changed so much because of my SD9. My therapist tells me the best thing to do is to get my own life. Start doing things that make me happy out side of the house. Start making more connections with freinds. So that when these attacks do come from the SD9, I am not so shaken by it. That I am still able to feel at peace in my own home. And so that it doesn't affect my marriage or sanity.

Seeing a therapist is a great idea but I also suggest that you, DH and SD see one together.
