Full of rage

I'm in a similar position only my almost 5 year old is in school but also have rage especially when tired. I hate what I've become. I feel like I'm improving but my fuse is still very short and that was never me.

I don't have much in the way of advice but just so you know you're not alone xx

I’ve had to come off social media because I was being flooded with posts that made me feel absolutely awful about being a mum.

From the amount of hearts this post is getting, it makes me think that this is normal. A person only has so much to give, trying to keep little humans alive is absolutely exhausting.

It really is!

Do you have much support around you?

I can be the same!

Maybe ask them to have the kids for half a day and see how it makes you feel. Can either just enjoy some time on your own or catch up with some sleep

Mum rage isn't spoken about, it's like a taboo subject and often many people dont know about it. It's a form of postpartum depression, please talk yo your partner. Or Dr's, they sometimes get in touch with health visitor to come visit, just to keep u company, adult conversation for a little, they only come around for 20m or so. I went though it and still have episodes but I'm able to manage it better now. You sound burnt out and sometimes you end up resenting ur partner, which makes it worse. You need some me time, as guilty as it makes u feel its needed! I started with just once a week bc anything more made me feel so guilty but ideally u need some time alone every day. And don't make ur me time into self care bc self care is meant to be daily. Try having daily habits that give u a but if ursrlf back too
