[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I HATE working now that I have a baby, too. I DREAD deadlines, presentations, conferences, etc that I used to find challenging. (I am also a little burnt out of my profession but that is another story.) But there was a thread recently that  asked SAHMs if they were "bored" at home. I wanted to ask, but did not know how to articulate, if rather than boredom, they ever experienced this same feeling of DREAD to each day that I get while working. Somehow I doubt it, but maybe it depends on the person/situation, I don't know. [/quote]

I am so glad you posted this. My child just turned 1 and the ever since I came back to work after 3.5 months) I've been wondering how my hormones got so whacked out that I can't handle the pressure anymore. I used to have thick skin when it came to dealing with the nonsense that came with my job but now I absolutely can't stand it. I can't figure out how to get out.

I appreciate the posts here that point out that there are disadvantages to staying home. I don't want DH to feel the pressure of being the sole breadwinner, nor do I want to feel dependent on him. I just wish I could figure out a job that I could do that would not make me insane. Sigh. [/quote]
