New to Mumsnet so please bear with me! Feeling a bit blue today - I'm prone to negativity and anxiety, I over-think things and suffered a bout of PND after having my son, so not unusual really. Anyway...Does anybody else feel like they make all the effort to see friends but rarely get anything in return? I have a good sized network of friends but often feel really lonely, despite seeing/being in touch with them fairly regularly. I just wish it wasn't always me who had to initiate meet-ups. If I didn't make the effort, I think I'd barely see anyone. Which makes me feel a bit paranoid!! Are people seeing me out of politeness?! I suppose it's stupid to fret about this when I have an amazing little boy to entertain me all the time - that should be fulfilling enough for me! I had hoped my neurotic tendencies would go away when I had a baby but it seems they were lurking beneath the surface...
