I'm feeling like my life is just not how it was supposed to be. Tired of being angry and sad and let down. How do you just start over and get away from it all? 4951

Welcome to the midlife crisis.I am there with you.  It's worse when you have extra reasons to be there as well. 4951

   You don't.  You have to make changes.  Drastic changes.   Do something that is totally out of character for yourself.  Something good.  Either something healthy or something to benefit someone else.  Start hiking.  Smile and laugh at everyone that passes by. Go help out at a dog shelter. You will never feel so needed. 4951

Maybe start with a career change, go back to school to learn a new craft. Or, maybe a change in scenery either by moving locally or to the other side of town (but keep in touch with your KDC peeps). Get some new friends, talk to a counselor, or anything that can jump start your mood. 4951

Being hurt by the one who is supposed to love you hurts real bad especially when it happens over and over. 4951

I do need a career change but don't know where to start. So confused and scared. Just can't take being mistreated anymore. I want to be happy and I'm not. 4951

  You have to do something for yourself.  A self improvement.    Do you have any health conditions that would inhibit you from jogging or biking? 4951

Take some vacation time and visit with recruiters in your field. Google will have a ton of them. After you visit with a few, your confidence level will pick up. Maybe consider temp-to-perm. 4951

Do you have a bike?  I am do for a moonlight drunk bike ride.  You ride at night for a while, then stop and have 1 drink. Then ride for a while, and stop for another drink.  The goal is to have enough to be happy but not enough to be an idiot.       ...I usually end up lost on the damn golf course.               WHY DOESN'T THAT THING HAVE A MAP??!?!??!!! 4951

Want to get out of education and into something else. What kind of recruiter do you talk to for that? 4951

@mattem: I could write the book on Starting Over. It can be ether a life saver and a huge mistake, depending. Would you really be better off?
