I feel terrible for doing this, but I need a break.
Has anybody else experienced this scenario?
Am i doing the wrong thing?

Hi @benji2705 i don't know much about your situation or what you are struggling with, but please know that you have absolutely done the right thing booking a hotel, if you need a breather from what feels too intense. You are simply fortifying yourself so that you can continue, and that is a very responsible thing to do. You are likely also setting a boundary for how you want to be treated, and that is perfectly OK.
I am basically a carer for a loved one with paranoid delusions and trust me, I think about running off to a hotel all the time! Can't really though as we have little kids.
Hope things improve for you
