Does the feeling that you’re a terrible mother ever go away? I constantly feel like I’m a terrible mom. It’s worse if I slightly raise my voice to my daughter and she starts crying
Honestly, I've been a mom for almost 19 years. I still can feel like a bad mom. I told my 15 year old today I was sorry for anything I've ever done. He said "your not a bad mom, everyone makes mistakes. That's exactly what they are, mistakes ". I think that use questioning it is what makes us good mom. And assuming by the title, depression does not help our negative thoughts. When I'm getting frustrated with my baby girl I say out loud deep breaths momma. Or sing out my frustrations. They might seem silly but helps me in the moment.
