I finally did it. I chagned the separation agreement to a divorce today. I don't want to be divorced but he fluctuated between the man I really love and being emotionally abusive. I hate who I am when he starts. I blow up, hurt, and scream and I can't seem to get past him and the horrible things he says. How the hell can a man walk away from a family. We have 3 kids and he isn't willing to work on things. then he tells me he loves me.
I am so scared........and angry. Someone please tell me these feelings pass. I am guilt-ridden that the kids are going to hurt so much. He is not even spending the time with them that they deserve on top of it all.
Also, I am reading a great book. It is called "When Anger Hurts Your kids; A Parent's Guide" by Matthew McCay.

I have a LOT of

I think you went through one of the scariest parts of a divorce today....actually filing. I was more scared on that day than any other day during the process that I can remember. Even if you know it's the right thing, it is still such a huge step to take. Be proud of yourself for recognizing you need to do this.
Also, yes, you can and will feel better, I promise. If anyone had told me a couple of years ago that I'd be this happy and content with life, I'd have laughed at them ;)
