OMW! I'm so glad that I am not the only one. I am only 35 and have 4 kids. Last year I lost my mother and have now become the caregiver to my 96 & 87 year old grandparents. I know that part of my not wanting to to things, is depression. I was diagnosed with it several years ago and it runs in my family. And, I am wanting sex and more affection than ever before. I think this is do to not only the passing of my mother, but also the fact that I tend to read a ton more now and have realized some of the things I've never had and would like to have them now. The intimacy and affections being the main.
I love my kids, hubs, and grandparents, but feel as though nothing I do is enough, nor is it ever right. It's really unsettling and very upsetting.
I've never associated any of this with menopause. It might be partly due to it, but my surgery was in 2004...I think I'm beyond it now. But, who knows.
