I feel lost
This is the first time I post here. I chatted here before and talked about my situation. Since the year 2020 I am worried about how is my life going, about my future. This year, of the pandemic, was full of uncertained future, changes. Then some things happened in my family that made me think about the future. Today I feel like my life is not going so well as I wanted. Years pass, I’ m getting older, my relationship could go better in my opinion, my life is a routine working working and not doing things for my self, for me, for us, for the future. I feel like I only live for working and do the housework. All my friends have children, I don’t. My life is only working, housework and try to carry me and my partner because I am the only one who can. Years and years like that. Nothing changed. I want to live the life but is not possible. Sometimes I wanted to live someone else’s life which is full of joy, happiness and goals. I can’t afford to go to a therapyst, so I don’t have anyone to talk with. And no one to guide me. I feel lost.
I’ve been feeling the same way.
it’s important to live in the present. Instead of thinking of the future full of uncertainty..i know how scary it can get but you have to try to focus on your present self. But of course have some positive goals in life too! I dont know about your relationship with your partner and how long you guys been together but if you’re uncertain with them then its important for you guys to communicate your feelings and future goals.
take care of yourself.
I truly understand this as it has been how I have been feeling for a while now. I have been living life "one day at a time" and try to accomplish one small thing each day. I never had kids myself and I look at other families and question whether I have made the right choices. I know I am at the same crossroads as yourself, all I can offer is that each day is a gift and a chance to take notice of the little things. I am willing to share my experience in more detail if it helps.
Thanks for the replies.
everyone struggle with lot of things and I’m glad someone could understand me because I have no one to talk with in my life actually. Take the advice to live the present and life is true and comprehensive but if I have to to this I might do it alone because I have no one else who can be at my side. All my friends have children and family an they are busy, and other people in my family have to struggle with things and also have their own lives. That’s why I feel lonely some times. All I wanted to do with my partner, of course, but with his emotional problems our relationship is not as good as it could be.
