It seems caregivers go through that but so do others as well. Spring fever definitely. Sometimes just the same daily routines day after day will do that too. Find a project that you'd like to do and start working at it. The weather is warming here so I am starting to do my flower pots for the yard. I definitely have spring fever.

Just a change in routine may do it too. Find something that you always wanted to do and start at it. Good luck. I hope tomorrow is a nicer day and your happier. :)

Take a good glob of Winter doldrums; add a tablespoon of caregiver burnout; pour in a cup of Spring Fever and you've got "blue goofus on your kazinkapeelee". The cure is to start working on plans for your flowerbeds; go shopping for something frivolous (not necessities); go out to lunch somewhere new; get a haircut; and give yourself down time. Any one or a combination of these types of things will get your motor going again--kinda like the Spring tune up the car needs after slogging through the winter. Get busy--get the lead out--Come alive. It is Spring (even if nobody told the weathermen here--it's snowing in Micigan tonight). LOL rocasi

I totally understand. Especially since I'm depression prone. I've found that when I don't feel like myself, working out helps. Those endorphins really boost the mood. Also, try talking to someone about it. Whether it's a friend or therapist. Also, a great website for all the ladies is WomentoWomen. You don't have buy their program, but they've got some great articles. Very inciteful & helpful. Also, take time for yourself.

Thank you all so much for the help. I'm trying to kick these doldrums. We have so much to look forward to, lots of things planned. I've just got to get my mind believing! thanks for being there!

what i have been doing is planning, planning places i want to go, planning my garden, planning camping and getting online to see anything that might go along with it,,,hugs and more hugs (that helps me lots)
