You're always trying to get it right, working harder and harder, but are starting to feel that it has all been for naught -- for your family, in your work, and most importantly for yourself.
You bend over backwards trying to make things good for others but are beginning to wonder -- when is it ever going to be about me?
You don't recognize yourself anymore. You've been living this life that you thought you were supposed to live, and one day, you wake up to recognize that you don't feel like you belong where you are.
You feel a sense of emptiness, a deadness inside, and wonder how you can keep going one day after the next, pretending that everything's ok, when you are truly not ok.
