Anger, impatience, aggression and not coping with motherhood...loosing the plot.

[superstarheartbreaker]

This week I have been feelsing so angry and resentful of my situation. I dearly love my daughetr and we had a lovely Christmas togather but at the moment I just feel so stuck and resentful that my options are so limited. I have no dp and feel very unloved and unsupported. I just feel like an awful mum. Where is this rage coming from? I have no pateince with my dd and I am snapping at the slightest thing. Just feel like the world's shittest mum.

How old is dd?

I'm a single parent and it is just knackering. Ds is only 2 and so is a selfish egomanic dictator, typical of his age. Its hard living with someone who doesn't actually care about you beyond what you will do for them this minute.

Hard time of year. I notice a difference if I haven't had any time to myself, I'm more snappy. Are you getting enough sleep too?

I don't really get enough sleep. Mental health problems led me to become a single mum and also mental health problems are getting worse BECAUSE I'm a single mum. Vicious circle really!

Are you getting help with your problems? I had ptsd after ds was born but my anxiety is better than it was.

There are positives to being a single parent too, I try and think of them when I'm down.
