    My depressing life
    I am in a relationship that makes me totally miserable. I know that if I end the relationship that my two girls will be devastated and so would his daughter. I hate to even get out of bed and face the day just because I truly hate my life and I don't know what to do?:(

    You need to do what's right for YOU. If you are miserable then your kids KNOW this and they suffer. It may suck at first.. but when they see you be happier and happier. They will be happy as well

    Get out of your relationship. Explain to your daughters how your feeling and why you leaving your husband. When they are mature enough they will understand.

    Hey,there are so many survival stories here,people posting helping others,they truly are surviors,there really worth checking out.

    Ending a relationship that's not working is always hard,no matter what the circumstances,but if you are happy,your children will benefit from that.

    You could still have contact with his daughter,it need not be the end of your relationship with his child.

    I have been taking antidepressions for the past 10 years on and off. The past few months it has been very good, but I still have that feeling like I am on a see saw ride. Some days up and other days down. Is that normal?:confused:

    Your children are definitely not going to be very happy knowing that YOU are not happy. Being separated from an unhappy marriage does not mean the children need to suffer. If the only problem is unhappiness then the relationship between your children and his child does not need to be severed from you or him. But your children know when your unhappy and in the long run that will damage them more than being apart from their father. Yes it will be difficult for them, but not nearly as difficult as seeing their mother in an unhappy relationship. They will model their future loves and marriage after yours. If you are content in staying in an unhappy marriage, they may seek the same type of marriage.
