Struggling
I’m really struggling in life lately with my 10 month old son. Me and his dad are going through a divorce after being together for 3 years. It was very unexpected and I am heartbroken about this. I don’t have any friends or much of people to talk or hang out with so any kind words or conversation would be nice. I’m just in a really dark place right now and don’t see how things will get better. 🥲

@Tanya thank you, it did ❤️
Praying for you
Do you know that in the first 2 years after having a baby you shouldn’t make big changes with relationships like marriage? It takes a long time for emotions and hormones to settle. Did you try marriage therapy? I don’t know your partner or you but I believe if you both got married and had a baby there must be ways to get to a better place as a family? If not…. Please stay strong for your little boy. After the storm comes the sun, always!☀️

I have been in dark places before, and it is hard to see past all the hard things to find the light. What's helped me is regular counseling, finding time for just me, and when I had a baby that young that often meant just a 10 minute shower or letting the baby cry while I listened to music and read for a few minutes, just long enough to lower my emotionality. Sometimes it meant just sobbing until I had no more tears. However you find a release for the negative, the important part is to get back up and start moving again. It's not as easy to do as to say, I know, but with practice it gets easier. I hope this has helped some.
