Am I depressed or need of new life

Im so sorry to hear this, motherhood is so hard isn’t it! I think it sounds like you are completely burnt out and need to try and claw back some time for yourself (really hard I know) is there anything you enjoy doing or just trying to take an hour at the weekend to go for a walk on your own to clear your head etc? Maybe some you time on a regular basis will help you. This is also a really tough time of the year, so much pressure and makes a lot of us feel burnt out and low xxx

This sounds exactly the same as me 🥺

I'm so like this too! I am putting this down to postpartum hormones! They are all over the place at the moment!

Oh this sounds so tough. Having children is hard. It changes our lives. Many mothers find they lose themselves for a while, for some that's a short time and for others it's a few years or even more. I think the fact that you e recognized your feeling this way is really good and allows you to look at ways to change things. Perhaps a visit to your go might be worth it, look into some counseling maybe. Have you spoken to your husband about how you're feeling? What are a few things you did before that maybe you could get a little of back into your life now? What are your interests? Maybe you can find or even start a new social group to meet some like minded people? Reach out to others locally, there's likely many other people feeling similar who would be happy to connect. X

Im 13months pp and i still feel like this 😔

I’m so sorry you’re feeling like that. Good thing is New years is coming up I make resolutions every year, give myself life goals to achieve for the new year. Make this year different. Join a group/club/hobby find something you wanna learn or do or get involved in, find yourself more ask yourself what it is you wanna change and slowly make steps to make that happen. You’re on peanut, a friend making app so reach out more on here and make it a goal to chat and connect and eventually meet and make some friends…..this time next year could look a lot different for you and the tone of your post next year could sound a lot different…just step out more reach out more put yourself out there, be more purposeful in getting yourself back and self care and filling your cup….Get the glow back girl. It’s time Xx and good luck!

I’m sorry same here but I used to it already be strong

Why do ppll say they have dream husband and family and home. But ur unhappy? Then... either that home or man isn't your dream or you have some mental/ hormones imbalance..because if he was man of your dreams... you mean, he's dreamy man but not into you? That not man of your dreams... is it? Isn't man/ home /kids etc supposed be happy place... just don't get it. It's like this cake is my dream cake... tastes like garbage.. his is dream? No sense ..I don't get it:/

Thanks for sharing this bc this is actually how I feel. Even tho I don’t have a dream job , husband, or house . Everything else is same as u. Hope we can come out of this and actually be happy. I say lean on god

@Ali I don’t get 100% of my general happiness from Hubby and family. They are only 70% of my total happiness. The other 15% is from my hobbies that fulfill me and keep me going to my goals, learning new things keeping me fit, and the other 15% is from my gfs- seeing them chatting to them venting, sometimes…things that either Hubby wouldn’t understand or he just doesn’t give me the same reaction and empathy as my gfs do. So as much as one is full with family and home, the most happiest couples I see out there are the ones that have hobbies and friends- both of them. Like I’ve spent the past whole week w family and extended family and I hosted until 4am yesterday…but tonight I can’t wait to see some gfs at an adult music event and let my hair down and catch up w some gfs. Family IS my happy place but I also need outlets. I think that’s what makes people truly happy. The cake might be my dream cake but I also want some whipped cream on the side to complete it…it’s not a bad thing 💁🏻‍♀️

@Ali part of the problem is this mentality, that the "dream husband/job/home" will make you happy. But that's not the case. There's a lot more to happiness than a husband home and work. What she probably means is she has everything she ever dreamt of having, but still doesn't feel happy, something is clearly missing from this girl's life. Maybe help her find it rather than tell her she doesn't have a dream husband.
