I don't know what I'm expecting to get from this post. I just need to vent.
I'll be 25 this year. I'm a stay at home mum to two wonderful children. One about to go off to 'big school' and the other to nursery. My OH has a good job with a good salary, good enough that I won't 'need' to go off to work in September. Also half expected to stay at home and be a housewife minus the children. (This is something we have spoken about, I'm fine with it. He just sort of thought that's what would happen anyway)
I have no hobbies, no dreams, goals or aspirations.
I live in a small village that's very rural. I do drive, but only have one local friend who works a lot.
I feel lost in life. Aside from raising my children, I don't feel like I'm going anywhere. Even if I were to get a job once they're off to school/nursery, I have no idea what I want to do.
I just feel like I'm floating day-to-day with no real purpose. I spend my days (aside from looking after the children) cooking, cleaning, too much time on my phone, shopping, meal planning and that's pretty much it. Which I know is pretty standard for a sahm. But still..
I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling like this. I just don't know what to do about it. I have spoken to my Dr and she put me on anti-depressants and said to review me in July.
Shrugs shoulders
If you felt like this, what did you do to overcome it?
