Sometimes I really HATE being a mother and a wife.

I miss my life. I miss me. I feel like I’ve died and solely exist to take care of everyone and everything.

I feel guilty but I’ve been feeling the same way. it’s so much to take on. Glad I’m not the only one. It’s hard being the only person my daughter wants. It’s gonna be even harder when this new baby comes (I’m 36 weeks with baby #2 and I have a 15 month old)

Hey beautiful. Those feelings are totally normal. It’s not easy taking care of everyone all the time. One thing that help me is seeking out therapy if you can. Sending you hugs.

I feel the same way.

Same. Especially living in a place in have no friends so all I do is work and come home.

same!! And feel like a”bad mom” when you ask dad for help b/c you need some time to yourself. For me at least. And sometimes he’s good with it but sometimes he complains and I explain to him everything that I do and it’s still not enough. 😭

I moved to a different state just a few weeks ago and it only made me feel worse. I work and take care of my family. That’s it.

Being a single mom is even worst girl 😩🫠

Avatar

that’s exactly my life. It’s super depressing because I’m not a homebody. I like to be out and about but between not knowing anyone and having little to no family, all I can do is work and home

Avatar

I was a single mom for 4 years. Honestly, it’s about the same in my opinion.

Avatar

I’m definitely a homebody but I do enjoy going out with my children to parks and such. I just don’t know the area so it makes me feel lonely. I have zero friends. No one to talk to except my husband. Which is fine. But yknow. Would be nice to have more people to talk to😢

Girl, yes. Just, yes.

I don't hate being a mother, but I hate being a wife. Our whole lives change with motherhood, but for men... everything remains the same. I have to deal with betrayal and neglect on a daily basis... my family is in Brazil. Here I have no one. I feel alone, I can't go out to work because my baby is only 3 months old.
