Trying to relax some today but all I can think of doing is exercising but I can't do that all day. I need to be home for my kids some too. Don't want to and shouldn't be complaining because I am very blessed in many ways.
Ok, well, still make sure you excercise. Can you plan something with the kids like a museum trip where you can walk around too? What you are talking about is that you have a lot of pent us frustration and you need to find a way to burn it off. I have had that too. I have done hours of yard work to burn it off. But that is hard if it is cold and snowy.

Some of that too is part of wanting to "run, flight" and it helps when you are "active' so you can burn off that cortizol build up.

Be patient, you are going to slowly work this all out. And if you need to vent at all, just come here and do it.
Also, try to find some positive thoughts where ever you can, that helps to balance too. A positive movie or shopping or anything you can do that presents a positive feeling.

Thanks for this!
