Feel so judged.

I’m not usually one to immediately jump to suggesting a divorce, but he literally said he’s pretending to be happy until your son wants to leave to. You should absolutely not stay in that relationship and you need to leave. Things are only going to get worse and it will in turn, worsen your mental health. I’m saying this coming from someone who has an autistic sister who just left her unsupportive husband who told her she was a burden for her mental health issues, and now she is thriving since she left. It will also be so much worse for your children in the long run to see you living miserably in a relationship where you are treated like that

Oh honey why is this post even about his sister making you uncomfortable? I would feel uncomfortable even being with this partner of yours anymore! What he said is imo, unforgivable in terms of staying together as he doesn't even seem apologetic and is making you out to be the problem. I don't know the details of your rock bottom, but the fact he said he is only with your until your son decides to leave you is horrible. Are you a danger to yourself or your child? Have you harmed your partner in some way? What is some context here because from your post it sounds like you are with a narcissist at its finest and he even has you questioning if some rude sister of his should be making you uncomfortable or not just because she is fake to your face! Of course you should be! Are you even thinking of leaving him?

@Lyss thank you so much for all your comments sharing this information. I've had thoughts that this was emotional abuse but seeing these had helped me confirm that, thank you.

@Emma I really appreciate your message thank you Emma. I do know I have to leave for me and my son and it is something I plan to do, if I'm honest I'm just really scared. Reading your message about your sister has really helped give me the encouragement I need though, because he's just making my mental health worse. Absolutely I don't want my son to grow up and think the way his mum is treated is acceptable. I'm so glad your sister left and that she is thriving now, that's amazing and so brave of her

@Jen thank you so much for your comment Jen. I do feel so uncomfortable being with him! I'm struggling with postpartum depression I have been since my little boy was about 3 months and rock bottom was me not feeling like I could do it anymore, a cry for help. I didn't act on my thoughts I simply just expressed them. I'm not a danger to myself or my child. And I have never harmed my partner in any way. I think he is, my therapist says it is emotional abuse that he's doing to me. He makes me question things all the time and denies he has said things in a certain way to make me think I'm going insane and have it all wrong. I am thinking about it, it's just terrifying and I feel so trapped. I know I need to though, because he's just going to keep destroying my mental health and I have to think about my son and what's best for him.

I am just really glad to hear your are seeing a therapist and she is validating your feelings. This will help keep you strong and work towards a way to get out of the situation. There are many resources to help you so please don't ever feel like you have to stay with this person to survive. On the contrary. You need to escape his abuse if you want to thrive. Praying for you

@Lyss I’m so glad you’re here. Just wanted to say that.

@Selena aww thanks i appreciate you! 🫶🏻

This is not good! You have to do what is best for you and your son. Praying for you. God bless…
