Tips please if possible. I am not being as good as I could be and upsetting everyone with my shouting.
I have 3 teens and a toddler. I'm a single mum twice- older ones dad moved abroad when they were small. Younger one dad has schizophrenia he couldn't hack my pregnancy and disappeared a month before the birth leaving me in a right financial mess. I have an emotionally abusive childhood and both my other sibs don't speak to our parents- I'm the only one who does as I've not stood up for myself and let then carry on bullying me. Ive managed to not have much to do with them over the last few years. Reading that it sounds like a car crash of a life, it isn't and I still cook the kids lovely things and read to them etc ect. As I have no one to love me I find it hard to keep going all the time and be positive enough about life for the teens. How do I pull myself together and be less volatile. Its selfish and I know I am failing and repeating the cycle started by my parents.
