I think I might go away for awhile

I'm not meaning to sound like a horrible person, but I'm going to explode if I don't escape for awhile. Do you ever get that feeling that everything is just to much, and you feel so pressured to live up to everyone's standards they expect of you? Maybe not, but that's how I feel. I can't sleep, I can't eat properly, my husband thinks I'm insane, my children hardly come near me because they think I'm insane too.
I'm not saying this to make you feel sorry for me, I just needed to vent a little and let you know why I might not be around for awhile. I havnt told James I'm going away yet, he'll probably flip his lid, but I need to get away alone for a week or so. Just to be alone and get some rest and relaxation, and pamper myself, will do me good.
Obviously I'll let you know if I don't go. Hopefully James will understand. Fingers crossed anyway.

C&K*s Mommie replied: ITA with what everyone said above... trust me you are alone in feeling the way you feel. If you are able to escape for a few days, I hope you are able to find the peace that you need. Take good care, and you can come back better than ever! BEST WISHES!!!
coasterqueen replied: I"ve felt that way so I can sympathize but never to the point I need to leave my family for so long. I hope this time away does you some good.
jcc64 replied: Your life has been a whirlwind of emotionally exhausting events lately. Your feelings are completely understandable. If your little "vacation" doesn't bring you any relief, or if your feelings of being overwhelmed do not subside after a considerable amount of time, you might want to consider the fact that you are suffering from a little depression. The symptoms you describe are consistent with that. It is something that can be treated in a variety of ways, should that be the case, and I think everyone winds up in that place once and awhile. But if it starts to intefere with your day to day life on a regular basis, you need to address it. I hope you find a little peace. Take care of yourself. We'll miss you.
Sarah&Mackenzie replied: Good luck with your "vacation". I hope that it helps so that you can get a little more normalcy back into your life!! We are here for you, don't forget that.
amymom replied: Good Luck to you. Take care and stay in touch with James during that time so he doesn't worry too much.
