Why is it as a mom we carry around with us so much guilt?
I am struggling in my personal life right now by raising my son who has multiple disorders. I have left my job due to the enormous amount of stress that I have at home. It is a complete full time job looking after Justin. When he is home with me he is 24hr/7days a week care. And yes that even includes all night. He doesn't sleep well at the best of times and lately is up all night. We are involved in many community agencies and numerous doctors that even when he is at school I spend the bulk of the day doing things for him.
I believe that I am at a crossroads in my life to take care of him right now. If I put the time in now it will pay off in the end.
I have always worked. Why then now do I fell consumed with guilt? I feel that I should be a more productive member of society but how can I right now? Why should I feel guilt over something that is out of my control??
How can mom's learn to curb their guilt and move on and enjoy the life that is right in front of you?
I hope the answer will come to me soon!
