That may be true, and I went through a period where I ate a lot of fish, but ... Idk, I guess I didn't keep up with it.

It's good to feel energetic and hopeful. How's the job market where you're at? Would it be relatively possible for you to switch jobs?

Honestly, I don't know. I've had the same job for 16 years. I haven't looked for a job recently. I signed up for an account on usajobs.gov. Maybe something will come up there. If I don't find anything, I still have my current job. (Yuck!)
I mentioned to my mom yesterday that I wanted a new job by the end of the year, and she said, "It's not a good time to be looking for a job, is it?" This from a woman who worked her last job for like 20 years - and hated every minute of it. She came home complaining nightly. I remember on her 60th birthday, I walked into the house and said, "Happy birthday, mom!" She scowled and said, "Five more years to retirement!"
So I guess I come honestly by both the negative thinking and the willingness to stay in a job I hate.

I frequently don't even talk to my mom because I don't want to stress of the conversation degrading into a circular argument.

It's funny you say that, because I don't feel like I'm being more distant with my son, but the one conversation we had yesterday almost degenerated into a fight. Then he accused me of coming into the house in a bad mood - which is totally not true. I had a great day, and I'd bought a new cookbook and some food, so I was excited about making a meal. I was not in a bad mood until he started sniping at me.

I'm not reactive. My mom says it's lacking compassion, but I worry that I'm losing my ability to feel and express emotion. I don't know if its a symptom or a defense mechanism.

Sorry to hear that.
