my husband, 2 1/2 y.o. daughter and I live in a different state than all of my family. We moved 4 years ago, and for a while, I liked being here. Recently, I can't shake this feeling of urgency to move back home. I am constantly sad, and I know it's not good for my daughter to see. My family visits often, and I know I am lucky to be so close with everyone, but I need more balance in my life. I live with my husband 3 weeks per month, and for a week I go back home. It feels like a constant roller coaster ride. I have no friends or anything here where I live, so I go from being completely alone (my husband works and goes to school so we hardly see eachother, and I am a stay at home mom) to being completely surrounded and overwhelmed by family when I am with them. My daughter cries for her grandparents everyday, and honestly, so do I. What can I do to get through this time? I have tried to get my husband to move us home for over a year, he says next year, but I'm not sure. I feel trapped.
