  • I felt the same way. Also have a history of depression, your post resonates with me.

    The main thing I discovered is the difference between life-giving activities and life-draining activities. As a new parent, I felt guilty that I didn’t have the energy for some hobbies and gravitated to others. Things can be enjoyable but also leave you feeling drained–those are the things that will probably need to be on hold for a while. Once my kids got to school age, my energy levels changed dramatically and I’m now starting to get back into some of those things again.
