You are definitely not insane. We adopted our son(also from Texas) 4 years ago and it was the absolute hardest thing I have ever been through. Not the actual adoption but the being someones mom for the first time. I went from being at work all day long, out with friends whenever I wanted, shopping , dinners out all on the spur of the moment to being home 24/7 with a baby. It was tough. But you WILL adjust. And you WILL enjoy it!!
Your life has been turned upside down, in a good way but still upside down and that is hard. I also thought people were thinking, my god what's wrong with her. She's waited so long for this. I thought it A LOT. But it really does pass. In the meantime, please get some help. Maybe just some support so you can have a little time for yourself. That helps a lot. Also know you are not alone. There are many right here that have been through it. We will listen and we understand.
Please feel free to PM me if you want to.
Take care and please remember, this part will pass and the joy will shine through!!
