The getting a life thread

I see so many posts from women who are dissatisfied with their lives, from having no time to focus on their own interests, having no, few or bad friends, losing touch with who they are outside their roles at work and home and experiencing low self esteem.

I’m starting this thread for anyone who wants to make a change so we can support and encourage each other to take steps to creating fuller lives for ourselves - I.E. getting a life. It’s not easy to do these things when we’re already feeling low and unsure of ourselves, but we’ll be here, handholding and supporting. A bit like the dating thread, with —hopefully— fewer dick pics and more happy ever afters!

This is your call to action - you deserve a life you’re happy with so if you’re not there at the moment, share your woes and if you are, share your best advice Flowers

Part of my ''get-a-life resolution is to put the divorce into the history file. For me/us it was over 2 years ago. Amicable now regards DCs.
Focus on family, teenagers/uni stage. Prioritise my career so as to provide for all of us and inspire me.
Relationships, nothing long term or intense on present horizon.

@groovergirl thank you and good luck with your course. I also see other people achieving success and I think if they can do it so can I. I’m sick of being poor and working mind- numbing repetitive jobs
