Hi Ladies,
I know this sounds dramatic and silly, but over the past few weeks I have started to feel like I don't know who I am anymore.
DH and I are having trouble TTC and the more this has dragged on the more I have started to find my work unfulfilling and shallow. I always wanted to do work that would "make a difference", but by various twists of fate I ended up in my current role, which pays well but helps no one (well, it lines the pockets of a select few).
Although I have often had little niggling thoughts that what I am doing is not really me, these feelings have escalated and are now there constantly. My job is cold and clinical, and I want to be warm, compassionate and loving.
I am thinking about leaving my job to re-train (maybe nursing). My friend thinks this is all due to not being able to conceive, and will pass in time. I feel like an empty shell, completely bereft. How have you ladies dealt with similar feelings?
