My wife of 20+ years said last night that were done. It destroyed me. I’ve struggled with anxiety and depression that makes me a difficult person to be around. Im moody, angry and I’ve always had a hard time empathizing with her. She said she’s been unhappy for many years and has nothing left. Despite progress I’ve made with therapy, the damage is done. She’s going to work on rebuilding herself and our marriage is over.

The guilt and sorrow is turning me inside out. There’s so much I feel like I have to give now that I’m getting my mental health under control but it’s too little too late. I’m literally turning in circles. I can’t eat, I can’t sleep and I’m consumed with the idea of convincing her to give me a another chance.

I’m reading other posts here and it seems like my situation isn’t unique. I suppose that offers some level of comfort but half my life is about to disappear and I just can’t bear the thought of it.
