I don't know if this is the right board but I am just wondering if this is normal or if anyone else feels like this?
I have 2 DS's, DS1 3.5 years and DS2 20 months old. I returned to work last summer after my mat leave with DS2, to a new job. It's a very high pressured job with huge responsibilities, one that at first I was looking forward to, but now I have just lost all zest and motivation for it. I work part time and I when I am at work I just wish I was at home with my boys. I just keep thinking I wish I could win the lottery so I didn't need to work and could have more babies and just be with them.
My brain seems to have turned to complete mush, I studied hard over many years and have 2 degrees to get me where I am today in this job. However, I feel I know nothing, that I blag my way through each day and that I will be found out as a fraud one day. I am meant to know all this theory and blah blah but TBH, I don't know anything! (well I do know some things but loads of stuff I know that I don't know it). I keep meaning to read up on things I need to know at night but I'm so knackered from either being at work or being with the boys that I can't be arsed.
I just have zero motivation and don't know how to get it back! Help!
