Mamas with depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders

Sometimes all I feel like I’m good for is cooking and cleaning the house. I don’t feel special or good about myself, it’s just all about taking care of everyone else. I’m sure it’s just my depression.. but it still tricks my mind to thinking bad thoughts

Motherhood is so isolating and depressing and boring lmao

This is my second baby. My first is almost 14, so there’s a bit of an age gap. Why is it with my second it feels like I have no idea what I’m doing. I’m freaking out about wake windows, nap times, I rarely ever go out because of this. With my first, we just went out and he slept whenever he slept. I also work from home/sahm this time around and with my first I worked outside. So these walls are all she knows and all I know. I’m losing my mind and I just want to feel normal. She will lose her shit if she is over tired so I try to protect that but I’ve been inside my house for her 9 months of life pretty much. How do I relax and just enjoy being a mom to a little again. I feel like such a failure knowing I should already know how to do all this.

I’m diagnosed with body dysmorphia and I’ve always had severe body obsessions. I have a 3 year old daughter and a 8 month old son. I now obsess about my children’s bodies/faces. I’ve been doing it for 3 years now. It causes me so much anxiety and it’s on my mind almost all the time. I mean, I’m constantly looking at them… I don’t do anything about it, I just have thoughts and feel miserable. Does anyone else do this?

Just generally feeling like life would have been easier if if I stayed with my ex who was apart of my culture..
