Is divorce a better option

Weazelbeast

The past year has bee  a nightmare for my family. Constant anxiety..struggling....talking about my peoblwm over and over. Alot of blame on myself for being less than ideal..feeling like a grown manchild constanyl on edge with reaponaibility when im only doong bare minimum as it is.

I dont see how we can ever be a functional family with my list of deficits...codependancy and wanting sameness over moving up in world.

I feel she would be better moving on from me. I cant seem to get my head around myself and when i realise im really nor thinking like an adult i fear she will never jabe an equal. 

Life has fallen apart and i want so little as an adult i seem.jaded by life itself...just following. With all these issues should i just accept what might be inevitable...that my needs will be too mixh for a nt to hold as baggage...least with someone else they may move towards goals rather than my anxiety laden existance.

  • Sorry to hear you are feeling overwhelmed and low. And I’m sorry that you’ve had such a negative response here, which certainly isn’t going to help reassure you. Self esteem is a problem that many Autistic people experience. 
    If all these feelings have been lingering a while, and you can’t see a way forward, then it might be best to have a a chat with your GP. Maybe you need counselling, maybe you need medication. Maybe you need to give yourself a bit of love and self care for a change. Whatever it is, trust that you won’t feel like this forever. Good luck.
