Oh no Megan. Try and break the cycle of monotony.

@Honey I’m really trying to i just get so overwhelmed it’s fights and tantrums from 6am till 8:30pm im exhausted my husband never helps me but even more right now cause he’s having gallbladder issues and i feel shitty for having resentment forwards him

@Megan I'm literally going through exactly the same thing. You've just worded my life rn. I'm so sorry you're going through this 🥺 I'm guessing you also have the anxiety of actually pushing yourself to meet new people?

@Faye yes! That’s why i always start here

I’m going through the same thing. My husband works in the oil field and even when he’s home offers no type of help or support. He said last night that he doesn’t know if he can deal with this anymore and we should just call it quits.

Went through this same feeling two years ago & had to sit the husband down & essentially give him an ultimatum. Communication is KEY. Men are mostly oblivious & don’t understand what we do & how isolating being at home with kids all day is (especially when they’re driving you crazy). Communicate that & come up with a plan for your sanity. We still have days where I feel like it’s all on me but then we have a conversation about it & reset.

I feel your pain. I have 2 younger children with me 24/7 and step daughter weekends & that’s all I am is mummy. I’m not Libby anymore, I’m just a mum. Which is a blessing, but I’ve lost who I am as a person without that label.
