I found out that my mom is cheating on my stepdad.

Problem/Goal: Honestly, I’m not in a good place right now. My mental health is really taking a toll on me. I can’t focus, and I don’t have the energy to deal with my job while also carrying the emotional weight of my mom’s situation.

Context: I recently found out that she’s cheating on my stepdad and she’s been doing it for years. I’m the eldest among us, I have four younger siblings and my younger sister is starting to notice that something’s off with our mom.

I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m so lost. I’m so affected because it feels like I’m having mid-life crisis and I still have to deal with this. How do I deal with this as the eldest? I want to move out but I’m also thinking of my younger siblings.

Previous attempts: I hinted that I know she’s lying. It always turns to a fight because she’s manipulative AF
