It totally makes sense, having a kid and caring for a kid really seems to change the whole ball game and it changes relationships in ways you'd never expect and seems to really kill friendships. So frustrating.WeeMason's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16840409816613005917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8698722995236961031.post-20997808208905401982013-05-15T11:02:25.383-05:002013-05-15T11:02:25.383-05:00Oh, friend.

I know it may not help when you're feeling down but just remember that what you are doing is an amazing job and something so important for Mason - not everyone has that chance! I've often felt too that my interests are lost, my time is gone, I've lost ME...but then I remember how short of a time we really are NEEDED by our kids and how one day we'll want this time with them back. So try and focus on that and just enjoy this time and know that you haven't really lost yourself, you're just on the back burner sometimes ;) But you DO need to find a way to fit in some me time. Read a book, walk around Target, meet someone for coffee, just get some peace and quiet every once in a while. You deserve that. I'm sure it'll make time at home more enjoyable too. Also, you know i'm always here if you need to vent!!

More often than not. I'm on meds for my anxiety and depression and somedays I just don't know that they're doing their job because of they were, I wouldn't be feel the way I am. And now their thinking I might be bipolar? Great, just admit me already why don't ya?<br />I know it's easier said than done but try to find the positive in things... Read an unlifting book like the happiness project or get outside and go for a walk (surprisingly, exercise really does help when you're feeling even more depressed than normal)...

I had no adult interaction during the day besides small talk with the grocery store cashier. It was hard. I was depressed and I didn't suffer from anxiety so I can't say "I know how you feel". I can say that I struggle to find the value in what I do some days. Try to focus on the little things and get outside- sunshine is great medicine :) I'll be thinking of you and I hope this dark cloud goes away soon!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063748536505662894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8698722995236961031.post-72900812441933227222013-05-14T07:32:33.239-05:002013-05-14T07:32:33.239-05:00I'm sorry honey.
