At a loss

I seriously feel like I’m at a loss and fighting a losing battle everyday of my life. I met my husband over 4 years ago and he already had a son with a terrible no good human, and I have the right to say this as I have tried and tried to be civil with her and take all of her nonsense on the chin for years. My stepson is currently 8yo and has completely shifted and no longer appreciates me like he used to. My husband and I had a baby about 10 months ago, which is my first child. I love my baby to death and he’s the absolute most perfect baby ever. I have never stopped or changed the way I treat my stepson but am now being treated as if I don’t matter. He’s infatuated with his mom’s boyfriend of 3 years because all they do is play video games together and I’m not about to be that parent. The stepsons mother has caused nothing but absolute almost daily stress in our lives to include trespassing, freaking out in public settings and talking to and about me as if I’m the damn devil. I’m just at a loss. I don’t feel happy anymore and I feel as though that isn’t fair to my baby. I don’t want to leave my husband, I love him dearly and our baby deserves to have his parents under one roof. My husband is very supportive but I do not know how to shake the feelings I am having. It’s like every other week when we have custody I’m a different person. Anyone have any advice or feel the same?
