Fear Of Sleeping Alone Phobia
I have a phobia of becoming a mother!?
I want kids and a family but I’m afraid I have a phobia of becoming a mom. I’m 25 and my husband is 30. We both really want kids and a family but I’m afraid my fear is preventing me from this step in life.
I’m not scared of pregnancy or birth, I’m scared of the commitment, the loss of independance, the responsibility! I’m used to going out and hiking for long distances by myself and spending a lot of quality time alone. Im afraid I’ll lose this and I really need it!
I also get a lot of feedback from current mothers that tends to go like this ‘Oh, enjoy it now while you don’t have them because you’re life will never be the same once you do!’ I also listen to horror stories all day long from co-workers regarding juggling sleep, work, and being a mom.
Yikes!!!!!!!
In the words of my loving Mother, ” If i would have known Grandchildren were this much fun, I’d have had them first.”
