[quote=Anonymous]I’m 59 and content, satisfied, happy with my life. The early parenting years were brutal for me, combined with challenging, stressful work and a deteriorating marriage. But things are great now. I’m retired. I divorced about 10 years ago and have a lover. My young adult child is a lovely human being and we have a great relationship. I have friends with whom I go out, travel, and exercise. I’m healthy and fit and youthful. It’s a world of difference from 20-12 years ago. Divorce, my child growing into a wonderful adult, and retirement makes life now low-stress, flexible, and easy. Like some PPs have noted, perspective and attitude are key. I’m sure some people would look at my life and find things to be unhappy about. But I’m very content. It can get much better, OP! You’re in the thick of the difficult years.[/quote]
