perfect dad

I'm a father ..I have the cutest daughter who turned a year old.. While Im happy with the perfect family, I am unable to fit in as a perfect dad... I feel my individuality is lost, Its all about my wife and child now.. I feel restrained in many ways and immature as I can't handle most things; People look at me as a responsible father and husband and the word responsible creeps me out... Is this feeling normal? How do I battle this?

I agree with @darius. Accepting is the best way to move forward. Your wife and daughter have placed all the faith in you as a responsible father so stop doubting yourself. You mean their world. As you lost your individuality, your wife is in the same boat as you, so talk to her :) Take it as another phase of life that has its own set of challenges and positives. You can do it!!
