A situation in my life has got stuck and left me in an obsessive state of mind. I feel paralised and listless. I have been like that for 3 weeks now. My life seems put on hold. I cannot focus on my daily life. I cannot function. Since I am working freelance this is a problem, because I cannot just turn up in an office and ?kill time?, so my state of mind stops me from doing anything.
The reason is very real for me but sounds sooo stupid: I want another child, DH doesn?t. We are so stuck. So I am obsessed with all things baby, pregnancy, etc, and cannot think of anything else, cannot tear myself away from looking at MN (conception etc boards). That?s all I can manage to do all day.
I know I have too much time. The devil makes work for idle thumbs.
It is so hard to focus my attention away from my "problem" and do something productive.
Any advice would be appreciated.
