Unfulfilled?!

Bear with me.

I have a good life.. I’m a teacher, usually work very long hours (I enjoy it, I’m not complaining) however, I do sometimes struggle with anxiety and it can get a bit much.

I’ve been doing a course for the last 2 years with lots of aspects such as assignments etc and it’s been really time consuming. I’ve finished this now an am just waiting for the final nod to say it’s official.

I got married a few years ago, my husband is lovely, supportive and we are happy.

I volunteer regularly. And exercise at least 4 times a week.

It’s half term now and I spent Saturday/ Sunday/ Monday/ Tuesday and Wednesday doing some work bits. Perhaps 4 hours a day..

I’m so restless. I keep thinking about little bits of work I can do and I’m so unsettled. What is wrong with me?! I feel so unfulfilled ☹️

Do you have much fun? Tricky now, I know, but is there fun and laughter in your life?

i think a lot of people feel like this sometimes, have you spoken with dh about it ? may be you can find a new past time on your own or get involved in a new hobby you could both share ?

@Merryoldgoat maybe not as much fun and laughter as I have in the past. I do think the current situation has impacted in that.

@romeolovedjulliet yes maybe. I’ve ordered myself a journal.. thought that could be a bit of a hobby/ focus.

We’ve planned some activities for this weekend as think DH has picked up on how restless I am!

Thanks so much for replying xx

I think you should try to do some lighthearted stuff if you can.

My DH and I realised we’d not been out since Christmas so we’re going for dinner tonight. Nothing fancy but just us getting away from it all for a few hours.
