I think making a list of non-negotioables when it comes to your mental health can help know what you need. I think we often overlook, more so during pregnancy and motherhood because we prioritise our children and their health. But without a mother at the peak of her health both physically and mentally, your children don't benefit much. Additionally, incorporating simple self-care habits as routine, such as some alone time, reading, drinking water, some sunlight, into your day-to-day can help ensure you are taking care of yourself daily and not every now and then.

Not at all. I feel it depends upon a lot of factors. Slowly let in your daughter also in this decision and make sure she’s also comfortable. If everyone is on the same page, then there’s no harm!

No it's not at all a wrong decision. It depends upon the situation you are in. and itt should be combined decision of you and your daughter .

Hi Neha... First of all, he's an absolute loser and you are a brave lady to even think about your options. Most would have left someone like that to get his sh*t together. There are 2 ways in most situations.... 1. He'll forever be an addict if he isn't showing any motive to give up.... 2. He's trying his best to sober down and be the dad he's supposed to be. The choice is yours. You can stick around and wait or find a way and leave. If you want to give him time, please prepare yourself for a plan B. And keep your child informed. Sounds strange? yes!! But most experts in this area emphasize on having clear communication when children are involved. This way they won't grow up confused and will have at least one parent to trust completely. The way you talk to your child is important though. Something like, Dad's made a terrible choice of food and now he's feeling sick. Let's wait till he gets better. In the meantime let's play. So it's not too overwhelming.
