I wish I had tips! This hits hard. I also have sulking resentful moments at the thought that being cared for is something else I am responsible for. A more grown up response recently is noticing how many activities I think I *should* be doing because I’ve hung my identity on them (whether they’re taking up time or just guilt energy), and focusing instead on the day at hand and where my attention takes me.

Thanks for sharing this.

I have also been in a big reading slump, and for me audiobooks have been the only thing that have been saving me. And I have recently listened to 20 very cute romance books. They are short, sweet and they make me happy because they are so far away from reality, but they also give me a satisfaction of a good read.
