Ada Calhoun
“In my experience, Gen X women spend lots
of time minimizing the importance of their uncomfortable or confusing feelings. They often tell me that they are embarrassed to even bring them up. Some of the unhappiest women I spoke with, no matter how depressed or exhausted they were, apologized for “whining.” Almost every one of them also described herself as “lucky.”
Ada Calhoun, Why We Can't Sleep: Women's New Midlife Crisis

“The people I know who are happy realize they can't care about everything," says Deal. "You have to decide what you care about. If everything matters to you, you're going to go nuts.”
Ada Calhoun, Why We Can't Sleep: Women's New Midlife Crisis
