Sometimes I feel that I don't have a social life anymore. I live away from home because my husband is from Iloilo and all my friends are in Manila, so it's hard for me to meet up with them because we only go home for a vacation once every quarter. And when we go home, I prefer staying at home with my baby and parents. Do you sometimes feel this way too? The feeling that you want to go out but it's just so hard to leave your baby.

Hi mommy carla. We have the same predicament. I felt miserable since we moved to Bacolod. I tried working again but it didn't work. While making friends with other moms from my son's school helped, I still felt so alone. I admit I'm not a very sociable person. I'm only comfortable with my longtime friends and find a hard time making new ones. I suggest that at this point in our lives we have to continually remind ourselves what our priorities are and work around it. Because I have zero social life now, I focused on taking care of my son and working from home. I am not 100% okay but I don't dwell on my problems anymore. I think of how blessed I am to be with my baby all the time.
