Does chronic anxiety ever make you feel like a flake?

Yes, a lot of parents are assholes. But you know what? A lot of people are assholes; some of them happen to have kids, some don’t. I can’t speak for all parents, and I wouldn’t want to try. But speaking as one particular person with kids, here’s what I wish my childfree friends would understand…

Reading in bed together, while it might not be a major milestone — like marriage or having children — truly is a significant event in a relationship.

Although research is clear we should not come to work sick, there’s still a stigma associated with admitting you’re too ill to go to work.

If you have these four types of friends in your life, they could literally be making you sick. Consider yourself warned and remove these toxic friends!

The problem with people pleasing: You’re trying so hard to be good. So how come you feel so bad?

My anxiety doesn’t mean I can’t be a good parent. In fact, it makes me a better one.

Clutter is a distraction, causing you to lose focus and get sidetracked, and it also signals your brain to feel that your work is never done.

No regrets about having kids? Maybe it’s time we all came clean.
