This feels like an inappropriate place to post this thread, but the "coping" section is gone, so I'm not sure where it should go.
I am having trouble reconciling the person I am now with the person I used to be. There are good things about how I've changed, to be sure - I don't get as worked up about the little things, try to enjoy daily life more, etc.
But on the flip side, I feel like my coping resources are already stretched so thin that as soon as something comes up - conflict at work, issue with the kids or the marrige, etc. I immediately feel like curling up the fetal position. I just feel fragile all of the time - I don't have the ability to take on additional stress because I'm already at my limit.
Does anyone else have trouble with this? How do you deal with it?
Thanks,
Mindy
