Guessing not too many people like to talk about this, but I figure if I am honest, perhaps I'll get some support for starting over. Sometimes life can get the best of you. Lack of a support group has been a problem for me. Nothing in my area so I am trying to start one myself. Also, I retired from my job. I'm 62 and could have kept working but my husband and I have been able to get by ok this first 3 months of retirement. I am finally not tired all the time and have more time to focus on taking care of myself. This has been a huge challenge to refocus on me. I have spent 20+ years working long days and taking care of everyone. Now I am going to try to learn how to take care of myself.
