Completely normal. I’ve felt it too.
Even when it’s out of our control—economy, job market, responsibilities—we still blame ourselves. Middle-aged men often measure their worth by their income. So when income drops, self-esteem drops with it.
But guilt doesn’t mean failure; it just means you care deeply about your family.
