Seeking Balance: Nurturing Self Amidst Family Duties

In the bustling dance of life, where roles intertwine and responsibilities mount, I find myself at a crossroads, seeking to thread the needle between my duties and the quest for personal fulfillment. As a wife and mother to a spirited 7-year-old, my days are a colorful tapestry of love, challenges, and ceaseless activity. Yet amidst this whirlwind, I often find myself pausing, yearning for a moment of reprieve, a space to nurture my own well-being and cultivate the facets of my life that have quietly slipped into the background. Navigating the delicate balance of family life and self-care has illuminated a profound truth - the journey is one best shared with others who understand the intricacies of this delicate dance. It is here that I extend an open invitation to kindred spirits who resonate with the complexity of fulfilling personal needs while fully embracing the roles of a wife and mother. The aspiration for a more fulfilled life, one where attending a gym session or finding a therapist isn't a distant dream but a reachable reality, is a path I wish to walk alongside others who understand the weight and beauty of our shared experiences.

Sharp pain in left side of stomach

Hi everyone! I have a question that I can't find a solid answer for on google. Ever since my anxiety first spiked when I was 11 and I stopped eating as much, when I am very stressed, do too much physical exercise, or sometimes when I eat greasy food, I get a sharp pain in the left side of my stomach just below my ribcage. Heat seems to help somewhat but only time can make it go away. It's been a consistent symptom of mine for over a decade and it worries me but no one can tell me what it is. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
