On paper all is good - healthy young child, nice house (though mortgage is high, yikes), lovely husband, haven’t been furloughed (though work pressure is intense).
I just feel... fed up. Quite teary, and small things can set me off. I’m frustrated with myself because things could be SO much worse.
How can I get out of his headspace? 😖

Yes, I feel the same. Extremely depressed at the moment. I don’t see much light at the end of the tunnel. I’m not sure things are going to get any better for me. Sad

Very low here too, heavy and slow. Feeling very lonely.
Just going through the motions.

Me and Michelle Obama!

On my phone way too much.Know there's no solutions on there.

Menopausal so that's also part of it.

Feel better OP. Sometimes moods just lift.

Not exactly meh or much as really frustrated.

I spent £1800 of my own cash training to get my CIPD with the plan that, come March, I'd get my qualification and change career paths. Then COVID hit, was stuck homeschooling DS and suddenly everyone either stopped hiring or, where jobs were advertised, there were 200 applicants for every role. Now feel completely rudderless, pissed off that I've spent all that money and just knackered from months of 24-7 childcare. There's no time or mental energy left to try and figure out a viable route forward.

We're getting a dog at the end of the month. Find myself looking forward to the idea of 7am walkies just to get out of the house and have some quiet time to think about things. My brain feels tired and cluttered. I really really miss thinking time

Joining in the meh camp. Been working really hard all through lockdown, my job is stressful and been busier than ever. All whilst trying to homeschool the DC.

Finished up for 3 weeks vacation last night so should be feeling great right? Wrong. Still feeling bloody miserable. Our annual holiday to family abroad in the sun is cancelled. We live in a lovely place in the UK that people are paying over the odds to visit at the moment but I can't seem to muster any enthusiasm whatsoever.
