I am having difficulty coping with my anger and stress over my continuing spousal support payments. I'm looking for some help, because it's affecting my professional and personal lives.
I've been separated for over 4 years and have paid support (both child and spousal) from day one. At the time I felt that paying the support was the right thing to do, even at the expense of me having to borrow money from Money Mart and go to the food bank for food.
I've tried my best to conduct myself with decency and respect throughout the separation and divorce process. Yet I am continuously treated with hostility by my ex. I get no thanks for the financial support I have given, I get blamed solely for our poor financial situation, and I'm expected to pay even more in support.
I need to find a way to better cope with the anger and bitter resentment I feel each month as I see the large support check get cashed from my account.
