AwdreeHpburn Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 :sleeping: Oh! Sorry - but I'm exhausted! We've been busy all weekend promoting our business, my daughter starts school in 2 days (and I don't have her stuff ready), we're moving 1 September, and my son is turning three in a couple of weeks! I know, cry me a river right? I just feel weak and overwhelmed. I know what I've listed are actually pretty big things, moving around the same time school starts is never smart - and that most people would feel a bit of stress from that, but I get overwhelmed when it's trash nite and the bin hasn't been put out! I sometimes think I am just not equipped to deal with "things" in life. I already feel like my husband does it all while I cheer negatively from the sidelines, but now I see why. I can't handle even the simple things like dishes and laundry on the same day!! That's all. Just feeling a bit inadequate. Don't know what I need really. Maybe just to get it out or hear some one say, "I feel ya sistah!" Alright, T out ..... ...til next time. Link to comment
rikka Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I feel ya sistah!!! (does that help?) Honestly I do, changes are overwhelming. Sometimes it is hard to "roll with the punches". So instead I will send happy vibes and wish you the best of luck with everything that is going on for you right now! good luck!!! Link to comment
renaissancewoman101 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I understand how you feel when it comes to being overwhelmed. I feel overwhelmed with life right now. The stupid laptop is driving me nuts and staying overnight at my parents is driving me nuts. I also feel as though I am not good enough for people and that no one likes me. I feel like a failure a lot of times. I also feel like people are out to reject me. I am so scared of things in my life right now. I wish one thing would go right for me, sometimes. I wish God would answer the one thing I have been praying for, for a long time. God, please give me what I want. It would mean the world to me. Link to comment

AwdreeHpburn Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 Thanks ladies. I appreciate the responses. Yes - Rikka, it DOES help. Just having someone relate. I too try to take time after putting the kids to bed Princess. Then I end up staying up WAY too late, eating WAY too much chocolate ice cream and not sleeping with my poor, neglected husband. Ren - we're in the same rocky boat and we're gonna calm the seas together, isn't it? You and I! Link to comment
renaissancewoman101 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I hope so. I've had a weird day. My computer crashed on Thurs night and still isnt completely fixed yet and I am by my parents for two nights in a row. I dont usually do that. I have to get up early tomorrow and take care of some things. Things worry me still, even though I am on meds. I still feel frustrated, and ready to cry. Life goes on. I hope. Link to comment

But I think meds take a while to "work" don't they? Or is it not a good enuff dosage? Link to comment
valenski Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 There are real life superheroes in this world, "mothers" yep, its ok to feel over whelmed because in the eyes of your children and husbands even super heroes need rest. So to all Mothers out there, this world would be nothing without you. Thank you all. Link to comment
RelaxByWater84 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I would suggest you take a break, if you can, when your children go back to school. Even if you can only take a day to sleep in, that helps me. Oh, your husband sounds like my father, he helps out a lot around the house. Props to men who help around the house. Link to comment
