[quote=Anonymous]I am also a SAHM, and I have been re-learning how to prioritize myself. Being in a role where you are constantly monitoring other people's needs and reacting to the environment around you gets you out of the habit of being proactive. I also think that so many years of stress adds up and your nervous system is just exhausted. Not feeling appreciated for the invisible aspects of the job is hard, too. When people say - wow you need a job - I get very frustrated. I have been "on call" for years, and the last thing I want is to feel obligated to a company. Maybe try thinking about what your core values are, what things bring you joy, and what excites you. I had to learn to dream again for myself. That said, I have no regrets being a full time mom.
