[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you sound a lot like me about 10 years ago. Things got better as my kids got older, but the thing that helped me the most was (you guessed it) therapy. Ironically, I only started going because I decided to go back to school to become a therapist and needed to be in therapy for that. The experience was life changing, but I resisted it for many, many years. Not enough time, too much money, not wanting to "open the floodgates", not wanting to seem weak or self-indulgent -- these were all of my excuses. I wish I had gone to therapy sooner. It would have made me a much happier mom when my kids were small.[/quote]

Me too-- could have written this.  In addition, what worked for me:  grate fullness journal; small love notes to my husband and children on a weekly basis; connecting to whatever spiritual faith you have;  more sex ( I know you don't feel like it) coffee dates or walking dates with friends on weekends; less sugar; less wine; vitamin d and to be honest wellbutrin has been a life saver.  Full physical perhaps a wholistic dr, check hormones , thyroid, iron, d levels etc.   Meditation has really helped too if you are open to that I can give you some ideas.   Massage 1x a month.   I have been you I get it, but I almost lost both my sanity and my marriage by not addressing it.  [/quote]
