My problem is and has always been the let down after the huge anticipation of wonderful things I thought would come with each holiday, special event, or even birthday. I worked myself up so much to the event, I couldn't live up to my own expectations. It's not just special events......it happens every weekend. I look forward to them with a passion, and every Sunday night I am deeply depressed. I didn't do enough. I didn't accomplish enough. I didn't have enough rest, fun, whatever and here it is Sunday night and i have to go to work, and the panic sets in. Do we as adults set ourselves up to fail so we can tell ourselves....."I told you so, you see, you are a failure"
