Third Culture Kid(s)

Tomorrow’s the first appointment with the therapist. She said to expect a lot of paperwork and just some preliminary talk, so I doubt there’ll be much to evaluate one way or the other. And I’ve been looking around at other people’s weblogs (a single mom of twins who’s also legally blind and the caregiver of a quadriplegic man; a dissertating mom of triplets) whose energy and enthusiasm for parenting, specifically, and life in general has really driven home to me what a whiny, whinging person I am right now.

But, the fact remains that I’m running hopelessly low on energy and I don’t seem to be bouncing back like I should. I’m not making the move to try therapy lightly; it really feels like something I at least need to try.
