[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I let you know when my brain comes back online again. [/quote] This. Six years in and I’m still waiting ... Also, the anxiety. SO much anxiety. I worry about my kids all.the.time and cannot turn it off. And lowered expectations. Like so much lower than I could ever imagine. I’m just grateful every day I get a shower and hot cup of coffee to myself (which doesn’t always happen with the work and school at home situation we have going on during COVID). If my kids eat a single baby carrot, I call that a win. If I get a load of laundry washed and folded in a day, it’s all good. But I’ve also come to accept that I’ll never get to everything I hoped to get done in a day.[/quote] The anxiety I got after becoming a parent turned out to be rooted in undiagnosed ADHD. Your post reminds me of me. Treatment helps and my life is better for it.[/quote]
