I'm depressed with the way my life is going?

Question

How do I make my self feel better? I want to do so many things. Go back to school,buy a house, get a dog, take care of my child. I cant talk to my husband he is to sensitive to talk to. Maybe I need to see a doctor about this?

Answer 1

Your desires sound reasonable. If your husband is too sensitive to talk to, then don't. Maybe his "sensitivity" is really his way of subtly controlling you. I don't know you personally or your whole situation, but it sounds like you're trying to raise the bar for you and your child, and your husband is intentionally standing on it. When I started college, my wife acted like an idiot about it. She said that I was doing it only to impress other people. I told her, "No. By going to college I'm upping my standards. Up yours." Sometimes you have to make the decision to do things in the moment or the opportunity will be lost to you forever and you'll eventually turn your anger on your husband as the cause of it. Fulfill his wish for him now- you not being an intolerable ***** to live with later. He'll thank you for it. I promise.

Yap, go see a therapist. But meanwhile you can start with small steps. Try to find a hobby and do something that you enjoy at least once a week, something just for yourself, could be reading a book or going to a park or taking a fun class you always wanted to take but never had time or money for it (go ahead and take the class even if you have to juggle your time or cut back on something else to find the money for it. It really helps). You don't even have to tell anyone else about what you are doing, not even your husband (as long as he trusts you, you can tell him that you need some time just for yourself every week).
For me, my secret pleasure is singing. I've been taking voice lessons for about 3 years even though it is kinda tough on my budget, but I am really enjoying it and it really helps keeping me sane.
Life is not as bad as you think it is.
Good Luck

Answer 3

In the eyes of God you are someone very special. Never look down on yourself. You can still make it in school even if you are a mother. Education is very important to a woman nowadays, go for it girl. Do not be let down by people who say negative things, they are there to hinder your progress. God will always be by your side, all you need is to invite Him. Listen to your heart and ask God to lead you.
