Confessions - life stress is destroying my relationship

Today Anna tackles a new anonymous Confession from the Therapy Room;

"When life is so utterly stressful - ASD kids, or just kids!, no family support/village to speak of etc and you end up just feeling...nothing towards your partner.
You think maybe you might still like them if everything else was cleared away but really all you can feel is nothing/irritation... probably aimed at life but coming out in your marriage."

Anna replies with some compassionate advice and tips that will help everyone, regardless of whether they can relate to this confession or not.
