Identity crisis?

Let me start by saying, I have a good life, an amazing husband, perfect lil baby, great family…but sometimes I wish I had a completely different life. I wish I was single, living on my own with no one to answer to and no baby. I’m a SAHM and the days can be overwhelming. I sometimes watch tv shows where they are single and carefree and can’t help but wish that was me sometimes. I know grass is always greener on the other side and if I had that then I’d probably want what I have now. Idk. Just needed to vent.

Just here to say that you're not alone. I think we all get moments like that. If it does become more than just a moment here and a moment there of wishing for such things, make sure you talk to someone. A friend. Relative. Professional. You don't want to bottle up your feelings and then have it hurt that beautiful life you've got going for you. And again, you're not alone. Same situation: SAHM, wonderful husband, a great preschooler and baby, but the other side certainly calls sometimes. ❤️

I think that's totally normal. I got married young and I kind of wish I had a different life sometimes. I think humans always wonder if the grass is greener, you know?

I totally get it. Before my husband and I got pregnant we lived downtown in a busy city, in a condo and we had soooo much fun. Partying every weekend, eating out all the time, shopping all the time. When we got pregnant we moved into a house in a quiet neighbourhood and I miss our old life a lot some times. If I drive downtown I get a homesick feeling, it sucks! It does come and go though. Right now my baby is in the best stage, he’s so much fun and not as fussy anymore so that’s helped a lot. I hope it gets better for you ❤️
