[quote=Anonymous]I started out as SAHM. There was a lot about the arrangement I liked, but a lot I didn't like. Recently I've switched to going back to working outside of the home. I thought this would be the answer to all my problems, but I find myself overwhelmed. I've always been a strong worker. Now I feel like a failure. I feel like I don't have the mental bandwidth to excel at work, or the time to be the semi-super mom I used to be when I stayed home. Are my feelings common? How do other working moms manage this feeling? I was naively expecting to coast back into the working world and knock it out the park. Instead I feel subpar and my self-esteem is taking a real hit.
