I've had quite a lot of bad news in the last year and have been feeling very down and anxious. I started counselling to help me come to terms with things and I've been feeling a lot better. Only I seem to have gone the other way acting recklessly and out of character, making stupid decisions and being a general idiot. Last night I got very drunk and tried to kiss a female friend. I have no idea what I was thinking, for a start I'm heterosexual and secondly married This latest bit of idiocy has made me realise I need to sort myself out.
I would discuss this with my counsellor but I seem to have developed a crush on her too, I feel deeply stupid and ashamed about this and I'm thinking of cancelling my next appointment because I can't deal with it.
Why am I acting like a complete idiot? I'm in my 40s not a teenager! Is this a midlife crisis? How do I sort myself out?
Please don't be horrible, I'm a regular poster but have named changed because I'm so ashamed.
