[QUOTE="Elsi, post: 739902, member: 23349"] Confused you are not alone. When every day feels like a battlefield your self esteem can take a beating. I have felt everything you’re feeling - guilt, jealousy, regret. And the same dreams, too. I could have written most of your post myself, especially during the years my children were still home. It’s a little easier now that they are out and my home is my peaceful oasis. When you’re in the thick of it, I think all you can do is practice self care, be gentle with yourself, and remind yourself that life goes in seasons. The things that are hardest now will pass. There will be other hard things, but you will also achieve some of those dreams, too, and find more space in your life for yourself. Please be gentle with yourself. We are all dealing with hard stuff, and doing the best we can. [/QUOTE]
