Married people...how do u fight stress with noise around you....drama wife, anxious kids, professional issues?
My heart starts to beat fast but as I am typing I am feeling ok...blind has therapeutic qualities π
Presume you are from the BAY area. Don't put too much pressure on the kids. Just let them be normal and healthy. Not sure what the drama wife and why does she get all worked up? Comparing TCs??
MIL (my mother)
If drama wife is due to MIL, the. definitely Indian. Live in parents. Do u have siblings with whom your mom can divide her stay? Tough one. Make sure your mom doesn't unnecessarily interfere in daily stuff. Advice your mom to stay neutral. Ask your wife to stay neutral too. She will also become a MIL some day.
Relaxing music, walk outside, monthly massages, personal time (aka βMe Timeβ), time with a friend to release the pressure.
And here I am unmarried, single, lonely, far from family thinking maybe life will get better once I will have kids+ spouse.
It's a journey...good and bad...same like singlehood
@vmware Singlehood is fun, so enjoy it while it lasts.
Probably need to sort the drama wife thing out. Kids will be kids and they go through things, but why is your wife a part of the stress?
shouldnt have had kids then
immature response
how so
When you are thinking of getting married, keep ears and eyes wide open. After getting married, keep them half closed.
I meditate daily and ensure time to be alone and absolutely quiet. Walking on trails works - wife and the girls hate wilderness coz of the spider webs.
Silence and solitude. Best cure... I also understand now why Dad was like the way he was.. we must be driving him nuts ;-)
Go workout
Keep the "me time". very critical.
Take a deep breath. Tell yourself that there are things whose outcome u cannot control but at least you can control your response to it.
