Interesting thread.
To an outsider my life looks great I have a nice house , finances are good, but :
1.Inside I struggle mightily with self esteem, I rarely post on YLF as I feel that I am not eloquent enough, and that my writing and posts will be of zero interest and contribution.
2. My eldest son is a source of much worry and anxiety he has Aspergers. He got in to major trouble when he was 14 which changed his life and he has never been able to get past it. He is the smartest of my 3 kids, earns very little, has no friends and now has a weight problem which I have nagged him about resulting in us having a poor relationship. My fault. My youngest son got into major trouble at college several years ago and I still worry constantly when he goes out that he will drink too much or someone will spike his drink. Anytime I see his # calling on my my phone I break out in a sweat and my heart races.
3.My husband has worked like a dog our entire marriage and was gone from 4am to 9pm most days. He is now working much less and from home full-time which should be nice right ? I'm finding it very difficult and even got a part time job to be away. He is completely addicted to the computer, it's become the other woman I call her Dell lol. Any time he is the house he is on the computer or watching TV. Now he watches TV and reads on his phone sigh. He doesn't know what to do with himself. We are working on it but I'm angry and lonely. I so looked forward to his semi retirement and spending time together.
4.I shop too much and still don't enjoy much of what I have , it never seems just right when it's in my house or on my body.
5. Iv'e recently got sucked into instagram and began following all sorts of people that are 30 years younger and quite frankly the make up certainly isn't working for me , what's wrong with me !!
