I snapped at my partner at the weekend after he'd been pissing me off all day. Spoke to him about it today and he said it's a pattern I have of being really off and in my own head , then having an emotional explosion before being back to my normal self... Everything's changed this month as he's started work, so we no longer have a SAH parent for the first time in two years... I knew it would be tougher but dang it's a lot of mental load (and as I work from home with compressed hours/day off, I pick up all that!)
I went through this and still struggle.. unfortunately it’s apart of it.. timers have helped me a lot
Absolutely. Juggling everything is near enough impossible and quite frankly, I’m on the verge of a menty b constantly. I find that I just can’t stretch myself that thin, it’s just beyond my ability. So I end up neglecting something along the way while I focus on another thing. Usually I neglect my own self and my own needs 🥴
