Any one ever feel like they just want to give up on life?

Question

i just found out im going to have my fifth child which by the way was planned. im excited i am and i have four beautiful girls that cant wait 7yr-2yrs......I just wish that i could pick up my life and start over you know where no one knows me and my family and i have a good job thats not so stress ful and all the bills are caught up and i have no worries.. i guess thats just a dream though huh. i have to bring my self back to reality.

Answer 1

Every once in a while I think how great it would have been to have traveled,and finished my degree.I got pregnant while still in college,all I have to do is take one look at my daughter,and all thats changes.

I will do all those things,but I am going to do them with my daughter,and her father.Inf act I am getting back to school in august,and I discovered during my pregnancy that political science wasn't the right path for me.

What really was lost except a chance to act like a idiot for a few years.

Answer 2

Everyone has stress. If it's not stress from bills, it's stress from a career. If it's not stress from a husband, it's stress from being single and dating and trying to find a mate. Count yourself lucky, you have 5 beautiful angels :)

Answer 3

I get like that too.. Not give up just start again somewhere new.. just hold onto that dream until ur kids r older n u n ur partner can take off or if u dont want him to come..

take care.

Answer 4

You can't really start over but you can change your life for the better. Even though you have 5 kids and a bad job, a good attitude goes a long way.Try to change your job for a better one, the opportunity is out there. Maybe you are under qualified so go back to school at least part time.Do you have family that can help you out with baby sitting?Or even friends maybe.It may take awhile to achieve your goals but at least there is light at the end of the tunnel.A lot of other people have done this, You can too.

Answer 5

Baby, listen.  Everybody feels like that as in, "Oh if only I would have made this choice instead...blah blah blah.." from time to time.  And you're pregnant and your hormones are making you feel a little less in control than usual, not to mention if you already have four kids you are probably one tired out mama as well, which affects mood too.  

So yes, everyone feels that way about wanting to change the past, but giving up on life?  Oh, no way!  Life is the best!  Even at its worse, be glad for the opportunity!  And choices you made in the past that weren't good?  Who cares.  You've got plenty of choices ahead of you in every single day that you're going to live, in every single word that you say to your children, in every way that you choose to live your life from this second on.  

So you take a vitamin, go call your mom or splurge on a sitter for an hour or two to watch the kids while you find somewhere comfy to sit, find something interesting to read, play a little music that you like, and just relax and be glad that life has taught you so much.  As for choices that you made in the past that you don't like now...hey...when we know better, we do better, and when we're young we just can't see, no matter how much anyone tells us.  We've allllll got those problems with bills and stresses with trying to get them caught up...more than ever with this crappy economy, you're not alone in that at all and it doesn't mean you're a failure in any way...believe me.

So start by taking a few LONG SLOOOOW relaxing breaths, calm yourself, and if you still feel that way tomorrow or more so than not, do see your doctor and talk with them.

It's going to be okay and that fifth child is going to be amazing :-)

Answer 7

I know exactly how you feel.  I really think lots of people feel like that from time to time (they just won't admit it to anyone they know).  It also sounds like you may be depressed.  See a therapist, it worked wonders for me.  I really hope everything works out for you.

Answer 8

You know that tI'me when you haven't slept in days, the baby is screaming, and your pregnant? Yeah, im right about there.
