Does Anyone Else Feel Like A Putz 90% Of The Time?

I was just wondering, is it just me? I mean is there something wrong w/me? I just feel like a putz. Like I should be working harder, looking better, being nicer, ect.. Been married 17 years w/3 teens now, you would think by this age I wouldn't have these self esteem issues anymore. Hmmm, maybe by the time I'm 50.
You shouldn't be feeling like a putz that much (now and then, sure) have you talked to any professionals about your self-esteem issues? Your doctor or a therapist can help.
I know from personal experience that it can change your life.
hope you feel better, soon.
I can understand this feeling completely - I am hoping for an official diagnosis of Attention Deficit Disorder in the not too distant future. I'm not overjoyed about this about this but it is some kind of relief to have an explanation for how I am. Hope I am understanding 'putz' to have the same meaning you mean.
Oh yeah, but I have major issues so I don't know if it should make you feel any better that I can relate lol. I am literally freaking out because I'm almost 30 and I feel like such a loser, I haven't accomplished any of my goals and I'm so unhappy with myself and my life... I thought it would be so much better. I feel like I have one foot in the grave already and the only thing I have left in life is to get my kids raised then I can just roll over and die. I have no advice or I'd be following it myself but just wanted you to know you're not alone.
Ok, I'm feeling much better today, not so putzy 
. It must be something to do with my cycle, because sometimes I just can't put things into perspective. I have a great life, so why why why, for 7 to 9 days it seems every month do I get really down. Any advice on how to combat this, diet? Vitamins? Would even birth control pills help?
I've been feeling rather putzy lately... I know I need to get back on meds. I have dysthymia which is a low level constant depression. The lowest dose prozac is ALL I need, but I didn't want to take it during pregnancy and breastfeeding. My son refuses to give up the breast, but he doesn't nurse for nutrition any more, so I'm more comfortable with it. Because my depression is never severe, it just made sense to not add any risk as no drugs in baby is better than "we think it's safe based on 20 years of research".
I have these grandiose plans EVERY DAY and I never get to it... I'm just in a slump - doesn't help my marriage get out of a slump either - it's all a vicious cycle really.
