Happiness and emotional stability as a medical spouse come from having a busy fulfilling life aside from your relationship. That said, my career is very important to me. I need daily challenges and pressure to get my fiance's career out of my head. So when I got laid off from my job a month ago, my life changed. I told myself I would be ok not working and just being a stay at home fiance. I told myself it was ok if I let my workout routine go a little. LOL. Yea right. Now I'm at rock bottom. I'm at the same place I was about 6 months into PGY 1 when I realised we wouldn't be able to have a honeymoon after our wedding because it's 'not available' until 2 months later. It's the same feeling I had when I realised if he left for work during an argument, it might not be resolved for a week. I'm right back there. And I'm freaking out. I'm re-panicing. I can do this. I can do this. I can get my own life again, because I did it before. But it's different this time. I'm 2 years older now, and I know more than I did then. I'm different now. I want different things. Back then I just wanted my own career. Easy. Done. This time I want a purpose for my own life. Then everything else will fall into place around it, including my career. Now that's a lot of pressure
What's your purpose in life?
One step at a time one day at a time. I am so overwhelmed. There is nothing left to do, but go run. Yesterday was my first day back. I ran 2 miles then did 20 min on stairmaster. Next time, I won't stop until my body can't go anymore or if he gets out of work early.
