Struggling mum
Hi there. I love my little one to bits, but I'm struggling so much. Today, when she left with her dad, I was on my own and I just lost it. I started punching pillows, and failing and my brain honestly just won't give me a break. Even at the best of times through my life my brain just keeps chattering but since breaking up with her dad I just can't get it to shut up. I'm not even anxious. And I'm scared to get help in case anyone thinks I'm crazy. I'm so worried that I'm going to be a crap mum. I also feel so alone 😪😪

Hi I can relate. I feel like I'm failing my daughter and don't know what to do. I think you should reach out for help if you are really struggling. We all need help
You're not alone in how you feel. Loads of mums feel the same way too. It can be hard to be without your little one, but take advantage of the break if you can. There's nothing wrong with having time to yourself even if you feel a little lonely. Could you maybe do something nice for yourself when you're alone? Meet up with friends? Relax a bit?
