Yes I do definitely and I have reflected on this a lot.
Personally for me its a combination of being perimenopausal, suffering with a relapsing fatigue condition, lack of long term mental health support and as I get older not able to bounce back as quick.
Nor indeed do I have the motivation to make drastic changes as anything I fo now there are more considerations.
I do wish it was different though. I have lost my hope lately that everything will work out okay.
Endless abusive relationships and friendships have meant that I cut a lot of people out, although that a positive thing, my already small world has become even tinier. I feel very isolated indeed.
I cant even look at social media atm as I feel so pathetic and my little life so insignificant.
