You will have to find this answer within your self. You mention many material things that you have, but what about your spouse? Do you love him? Do you feel he loves you? Were your ready to have 3 children by age 25? Or are you feeling trapped by it? If you have a one-month-old baby, could you be suffering from postmortem? Have you consulted your physician? There could be many things going on here.

Youve reached the goals you set for yourself and now are beginning to wonder if this is all there is to life. Its admirable to have what you do at such an early age,but are actually disappointed theres not more and that you reached this without much effort. Now you need to set some more higher goals to challenge you. This happens time to time and is rare to see, especially at 25. Youve done something most people cant do in a lifetime. Maybe teaching at a higher grade or college level would challenge you enough to rid you of this unhappiness. Youre in a rut and need to get out, Maybe even a different career using your background could help. Anything to change your everyday pattern. Your kids are actually to young still to get involved in their lives, like scouting,etc. Maybe even getaway weekends with your family might break the pattern. Its not easy offering advice to a young person who has basically conquered life, but wish you the best of luck in obtaining new goals.

Sounds like you really haven't set any goals for yourself. Ask yourself, if you're not happy right now with what you have, then what exactly would make you truly happy. You've described a lot of people's dream life and you're unhappy with it. That means you are one who probably will never be happy unless you just enjoy the moment. If we constantly think about what ELSE can make us happier, than we never fully enjoy the steps that made us happy in the first place. The only way you'll be truly happy is if all of what you have right now were taken away from you; then you would realize you are truly blessed.

Right now you can just be overwelmed with having to go to school, be a mother, clean a big home and working at the same time. You might just want to slow down some. This should just show others that having money and things in life are not what make a person happy. Slow down and have some fun in life.

All these things you have mentioned excluding your career, and degrees, are just plain materialistic, and these things don't always bring happiness...you should be happy about your career, and your degree, why?....because you achieved those, and at the end of the day they really matter....you sound as if you are not satisfied with your life...let me tell you something i know people who don't possesses half of what you got and they are the most happiest people i know, they are so contented, and satisfied with what they got...but it's clear you are not....so i can only draw one conclusion, maybe you have too much, and need to live more of a simple life, because at the moment all these things you have bring you nothing but unhappiness....instead of focusing on these material things focus on having fun lots of it with your children, they bring the greatest happiness...enjoy them.

Postpartum depression maybe. Sounds like you have your hands full. Try and get some time to yourself. Ask the hubby to take the kids for a while and go get your nails and hair done. Have a girls night out. I know that would only put a bandaid on it. But it might help for 1 night.

Only you can really answer that. Maybe you always thought by having all those material things that it would bring you happiness and now that you are there you are not so happy....Are you suffering from depression, maybe you need to see your doctor and get something to help...spend time with your kids,do something exciting, change your routine, I am sure with 3 kids everything is repeated day in day out....smile more often! :)
Good luck to you!

well considering what you are juggling in your life, i can see why you feel that way. what you may be dealing with is depression. you have your hands full looking after three small children, and the big house along with your husband needs. thou you may feel he is quite supportive. with what you have gone through during the last three years and having just gave birth to a third, its quite normal to feel this way. its often called post pregnancy depression, talk to your doctor and see if he can suggest things to help you through this normal period. if you don't get the medical attention you need it will only get worse.

Depression happens to someone without reason. Seek help. It is OK to get professional help when you feel that way. Drugs can't really do it and maybe you are in post partum depression which is very serious.
