Hi, I just wanted to update after I posted my question a few days ago.
Firstly, I want to say thank you to everyone who gave advice. I had no idea what to feel or what my next move should be, and reading all of your responses really pushed me and helped me a lot.
I sat down with my husband, and it was the hardest conversation ive had with him. He was amazing, so supportive and lovely about it. There was the initial anger that I expected towards the man, however I explained that i cant be worrying about a confrontatiom before Im even close to ready. He agreed with all the suggestions, and i have an appointment with my counsellor and we are looking into a hypnotist.
Its been a hard few days, it feels like now it is out in the open, all the emotion has come with it. Ive been angry, depressed, crying. But through it all my husband has just held me and told me we will get through it.
So, trying to stay positive and get on the path to healing! As for my mother, at this stage we will not be telling her. She's been alcoholic since she was a teenager, and she is very volatile, and I really couldn't handle it if she reacted anything other than supportive....
Again, thank you so much for your advice and support. You're all amazing x

You are such a strong and brave woman and have a partner who is in love with you and willing to stand by your wishes. The emotions are normal, but when you feel them coming on (until you see your doctor)....please keep saying to yourself.... *I am a survivor and I take back my life*.... I am so happy you talked to your partner and are on the path to healing.
