The kids would get to see the consequences of me being authentic as me being homeless.
I can't take that risk.
Objectively, my life is OK (on paper it probably looks near perfect to most people), which makes me luckier than many. I just have to accept that OK is as good as it will ever be.
And honestly, sometimes that is really the best outcome and I hate saying that out loud. Should you need someone to vent to, please feel free to PM me. I have friends that are going through similar and I am always happy to lend an ear.
I wish you peace in your journey. This is not an easy thing to come to grips with and rarely, if ever, are the consequences of doing this discussed.
