[quote=Anonymous]Exactly. I have no doubt that if you sampled my emotional state at any given moment, I probably have way more moments of anxiety, stress, and exhaustion than nonparents, and fewer moments of relaxation and pleasure. But I am also sure (based on comparing myself before and after) that I have many more moments of pure love, hysterical laughter, satisfaction, and a feeling of groundedness and purpose. I also don't experience the downs that I did pre-kids, when I often felt the days & nights stretch before me with loneliness and confusion. [/quote] Above is exactly how I feel. I feel more grounded and fulfilled. But more anxious and worried too. [/quote]
