Feeling lost, depressed

[Fun&care]

I am sorry you are feeling overwhelmed Torontokids. You really do have a lot on your plate. It can be hard when you so badly want change but it doesn't come or takes forever. I have been feeling stagnant and frustrated myself, wanting to move on etc. but it hasn't happened just yet. We live far away from our families too and it's difficult sometimes, however moving back to our hometown is not even a possibility in our case as there are just no jobs...being a stay at home mom was always my dream too but it will never happen. It is sad that most households now need two incomes, makes things so much more stressful for some.

I want to add too, don't forget it is January, we are in the dead of winter and it sucks! I've heard of a lot of people feeling down in the dumps etc. so don't forget that could be playing a part. Don't forget to LET yourself feel sad. There is no wrong in it! Don't feel guilty about not being happy about your circumstances-that just silly!

Give yourself a break this week, don't do any programming and just let the kids play. I've been doing it for two weeks and it feels great, it's been a nice break since I have been so unmotivated to do really anything at all.
