Hi sweetpea - I sent you an email. I guess my thoughts come from the girl in me whose mom suicided. I know you think that it would be better for your kids to be without a mom than to have an angry, screwed up one.
If you would plz wander around your head a bit and search out a wee logical part, you might know that this current state of mind will not last forever. It feels like it tho. But it won't last forever.
My mom thought her kids would be better off without her. She thought she was too crazy. But I would beg to differ, oh dodo mom of mine. I would have LOVED to have a crazy mom. Crazy sorta comes and goes, as most of us know. Phases in and out. I'd take her any way I could get her. She had a bad phase, and killed herself. Now I've been without her for 30 years. It was just a bad depressive cycle! It would not have lasted.
She smelled of hyacinths.
