I'm not sure if I'm a terrible person who just can't settle, but I have 2 very young children and over the last week I've been feeling sentimental and emotional about my life before children.
I really don't know why I'm feeling this way because I love them both so much, but right now I could quite happily leave them both and DH behind and just run away.
I feel trapped. I have no friends now, no social life, no job and I don't love DH anymore and want to leave but can't.
I can feel the panic rising and the adrenaline kicking in but what can I do? Nothing.
I've tried reconnecting with friends but it's just not the same now I've had children. I've tried making new friends at baby groups and again not the same. I'm a terrible shy and awkward person and it takes me so long to make a good friend, that I just wish I had made more effort to keep up contact when dc1 was newborn.
Aargh! Anyone else get these feelings or am I just a total nut job and need to see a professional?
