Does your world feel upside down and overwhelming? Are you tired of people saying this is your "new normal?" What's taken over? Cancer, parenting, chronic illness, taking care of aging parents, becoming an empty nester? During the day you're distracted and irritable, and you can't remember the last time you slept soundly through the night. The anxiety and worry about what could happen is too loud only drowned out by regret. You spend your days caring for everyone but yourself and wondering what's next for you. Is there anything? Is there more? You stay small and silent, hiding your true feelings to protect those you love.
