Help!!!

I don't even know how to begin. I don't know of it's a mental breakdown a midlife crisis or early menopause. And I don't even think there is even one person who can relate. I feel so damn alone.
*long post*
I'm falling apart and feel like I'm on the edge. As any other woman out here I do everything in my house. The only conversation I have is with a 2 year old for almost 12 hours a day. I make all the sacrifices for everyone else to be happy. I listen to every single negative thing that any one person tells me. I sit here day and night constantly in a state of depression and allow my anxiety to get the best of me. I go through a million plus negative thoughts a day. I go to bed crying . I wake up crying. I try to be ok with what's going on in my personal life. But for the life of me I can not seem to bring my self to be ok or even wrap my head around this situation. Then I feel like I'm being unfair and controlling. As a married woman I'm just not ok with my husband casually talking to another woman period. Regardless if it's a life long friend. That right there even coming out of mouth makes me sound so controlling. I'm stuck now in a position where I keed out of desperately so I can move forward. I see a change in my husband now and he's just completely different all of sudden. Like all of sudden I exist now. More deep conversations. More attention More understanding. But why now . And why can't I just be ok with it. How to pull myself out of this knowing I have so much to offer. I feel like I'm always crying on the inside so no one can see or hear me . I not only cry over that but I also seem to overwhelmed with the fact I just lost a so called best friend who wants to have a pityy party over the crap she wants to call people out on while do the same crap. I don't know if this is age thing or what but I don't see eye to eye on alot of the stuff i hear or see that's going on in my life. And at the end of the day I'm made out to be the bad guy. I'm not supposed to talk about anything I'm supposed to sot back and be ok with everything. Just swallow the lump in my throat. I've always just wanted one person who would never give up on me. A best friend who will stick with me through everything. At this moment in life I feel like a complete failure at life, as a mother ,as a wife and a friend. I'm mentally and emotionally on the edge and can go over anytime.

I could have written this post myself a few years ago. The toddler years are so hard on us mommas, and they change the marriage dynamic so much.

I am a AuDHD who sucks at responding to messages regularly, but I'd love to chat or schedule a get together to get you out of the house šŸ’›

Cognitive Processing Therapy changed my life and is the reason I'm here today. If talking to a professional is an option, I recommend it. You deserve someone to hear you out too, rather than you soaking up everyone else's bullshit all the time.

How many sexual partners have you had?

I’m in a community where it’s normal to wait until marriage, meaning that myself and many of my friends have only ever had one partner. I’m curious what people outside my bubble have experienced.

Pelvic Floor Exercises

My husband and I did the deed for the first time since I had our second baby and I can just tell I am just not as tight down there and it immediately humbled me🄲🄲

Are there any recommendations on a good YouTube video/channel that has pelvic floor exercises I can start doing??

Birth Parter(s)

I’m embarrassed about this hence anon….from the start I’ve wanted my mum in the delivery room with me along with my partner. I’m extremely close with my mum. Partner would ideally not have her there, but accepts it’s my decision. I feel guilt over that.

However I’m concerned my Mum will tell everyone I’m in labour and end up taking over. I’ve got about 2 weeks to go and I don’t know how to best set boundaries without offending her. But if I don’t - I know I’ll end up getting stressed and asking her to leave anyway. I’ve asked that she give us space after baby is born and she’s agreed with that at least.

Has anybody been through something like this? I feel like telling her I’ve changed my mind and she can’t come on the day, however I do want her there for support - as long as she doesn’t overstep boundaries.

One thing I will never be with my child is overbearing like I’ve had all my life, because this is the consequence.

Lonely

I feel lonely sometimes but I am not alone. Im married and have friends, but most days postpartum I just want to be held and sob into someone's arms about how everything is changing so rapidly and don't feel I have that...may have to fer a blow up doll lol! Anyone relate? (Not to the blow up doll but the lonely in a crowded room so to speak). Also, I feel most full when I am with mt daughters. They are so fun! And when I go on playdates my 4 year old has a blast.
