[quote=Anonymous]50 and most of this resonated with me. I definitely did not feel this way at 40 or 45 or even 47. What's different? 1. swift and sudden decline in my parents' health requiring a LOT of time and energy 2. Children becoming tweens and teens, which is much more emotionally draining and stressful than the physical demands of young children 3. Job with increasing levels of responsibility and commensurate time and effort (this is my husband, too) 4. Physical changes related to age and menopause, all at a point in my life when I have less time than ever to dedicate to exercise, eating well and self care. New health conditions. Dental work. On the plus side, I no longer put up with any bullshit and my female friendships are amazing, supportive and a tremendous source of joy. Thank god we are in this together.[/quote]
