how to act?
How are we dealing with postpartum rage? Because I for one am struggling.
I do not even know how to act when you can see or shown someone does not care about you or your feeling, whether that is family or partner. I struggle in my emotions and they get the best of me.

for me i do not feel rage towards my baby, its the grown ups that make me rage, certain people i can not tolerate and that makes me rage
Oh I understand that! I would hold it in until certain people left our house then would rant to my husband until we finally started losing contact with them. I just couldn’t stand them or the thought of them being around my child for several reasons and my husband agreed

That’s so rough and mine is coming back with my second pregnancy and it’s terrifying! I’ve learned how to communicate better to my partner (if he’s home from work) that I need a break and to go do something on my own (30 min of show, phone, bath, etc) and it really calms me down. I also leave my child in a safe space, close my bedroom door and scream into a pillow just to get some rage out or even just go to the bathroom on my own. Lots of deep breaths too (even my toddler notices me starting to escalate at times and tells me deep breaths 😅)
