SORRY LADY's , I'M DONE PUSHING MYSELF!

Posted , 9 users are following.

Hello Girls,

Yes, I am done pushing myself into doing things because it's the right thing to do. I have been dealing with this for 14 years and I can't take no more!

I have always put everyone first before myself in my life all my life. And never thought twice about it. That is just me.

And I still put my children first, but as far as going places family functions, weddings, baby showers, husband's Christmas parties etc.

if I don't want to go or feel uncomfortable , I hit a point where if I don't want to go, I do not go!

And I feel all the better for it.

I just tell my husband and my family the truth, tell everyone I'm in a depression. I am not going to hide what is happening to me. It is what it is, It's hard enough I have to deal with it on my own let alone having to worry about what other people think.or hiding what's going on. I tried hiding it for too long. It is very liberating and I am so happy I hit this point. It may sound selfish but I feel so much better. besides I think it's about time I've become a little selfish, as this has never been a trait of mine.

I know all of you might think less of me but I'm sorry after 14 years I'm glad I hitvthis point.I hope none of you have to go through what I have.

My best to you all!

    Hi Maggie no one will think less in fact I think it's a self-loving thing to do. And good role modeling for your kids.

    My mom was 41 when I was born.

    I wish I had gotten married and had kids. I never thought too much about it until these last 11 months in peri hell. Realize Im missing out on a good aspect of life. 47 now so...
