Hi, I seperated from my husband recently. We met through his cousin who used to be a good friend of mine. He was originally on a student visa and was going to have to return home to peru so stupidly I agreed to marry him in a registry office (we were meant to then marry in a more trad way in front of family and friends etc in april, it never happened). I was in love and my 6yr old daughter from a previous rel adored him. He changed straight away, I fell preg (we were trying as I have a medical prob that means I will soon lose the chance to have more kids in the future) and we now have a 3 month old son. He became possessive and controlling, even keeping a diary of every time I went out even if it was simply to take the baby to the clinic, he lied about money and started drinking coming home all hours, kept threatening saying that I better be careful bec I don't know what spanish men are capable of etc. We have since seperated and I know that it is the right thing I was miserable, my daughter was scared and I know it's not the right environment for a baby to thrive in etc but it would have been our first wedding anniversary this sat and I feel like the biggest failure 2 kids to 2 dads how bad does that look? And worst of all hardly anyone knows we were married just a few close friends, I knew that everyone would have tried to talk me out of it bec they would have been concerned about him only wanting a visa. Am such a mess, am normally a strong person but am exhausted but I cant sleep, I am moody, snappy and teary, I don't know how to pull myself out from this.

Life is what we make it. I know it sounds like fortune cookie logic but it is true. Life is a journey; we never know where we are going to end up at any given time. Focus on yourself and the gifts you have. Children are a blessing…trust me. I am a professional nurse and I work as an emergency trauma nurse and I see death and pain everyday. Life is short and regret serves no purpose. All you have to do is love your children everyday and love yourself. Life will work out, stay positive and if you cannot seek professional help. Counseling should be provided to everyone, we all need someone to talk to from time to time.
