I'm in desperate need of reassurance!
I'm 30 in exactly one week and I'm not coping with it as well as i'd hoped! I've read all the self help books and am using all the witty analagies (sp, not sure!) like 'hey hey, I'm approaching my flirty 30's' but nothing is making the fear of my birthday go away.
I don't even know what exactly i'm fearful of, but i'm seriously finding it hard to raise a smile indoors whenever my birthday is mentioned. My mum and hubby both think i'm being silly, and probably think i'm being a bit attention seeking and that I secretly want a big fuss made, but really I don't.
Anyone else get this sense of impending doom when they were nearing a 'special' birthday? If so, any ideas of how to get through it without spending the day alone in bed with vodka tonic as company would be greatly appreciated!!! (Although it sounds like a great idea, I have a 22 month old to look after and I fear social services mightn't like a boozed up parent!)
