I have one DS, 2.3 and have been an LP for about a year. I am just feeling totally exhausted and when Ds spends a weekend with his dad I find it hard to relax and feel constantly tense. I even find it hard to sleep although I am craving uninterrupted sleep
I am not collecting DS till tomorrow and had decided to just have a day to myself today but I have just had an overwhelming sense of panic and sadness and loneliness. I feel guilty for not working, doing housework etc but equally have very low energy levels.
I have just had a chat with my dad, who has just had to deal with me a blubbering mess, and he thinks I should go to the doctor to see if I should take something. I am guessing that he means ADs but I don't think I am depressed just a bit overwrought.
Does anyone else ever feel like this? What are your coping techniques?
Any tips gratefully received!
