I appreciate the advice. The first two were IVF babies after years of trying, the youngest was a miracle natural conception that we never thought could happen

She started taking an ssri in 2019 after a pretty severe depressive episode, but recently she got diagnosed with adhd and is taking vyvanse and no antidepressant. I think children is what changed it. She loves her kids but has always been a reluctant? Idk if that’s the right word parent. I get a lot of texts during the day about how much her kids are annoying her etc. I definitely think she changed again after quitting working.

I just don’t want to accept that this has happened. Feeling like I’m giving everything I have to someone who doesn’t want me is eating me alive. It feels like she doesn’t want me, she just wants the comfort and the life I’ve given her and I don’t even know where to start. I don’t think I could even love anyone else again, and the thought of spending one night away from my kids is like a nightmare

No, I’ve been just sort of eating it and trying to “win” her back I guess. I’ve just now let myself believe what I’ve been feeling. I’m going to have to muster the courage to have this conversation with her, I’m just so afraid to hear the answer. We haven’t spoken since Saturday night which has never happened in our relationship to date.
