Just that really. I'm trying to establish some sort of career success as a teacher but each time I try I have some kind of stress crisis and get bullied out.
I'm a ta which is stress free but I feel unfulfilled and unsuccessful.
I feel like a shit mum as I've been snappy and resentful with dd poor thing. It's a vicious circle as I feel I don't want to miss out on my daughters childhood by working ft but then feel frustrated that I can't advance my career.
I find the guilt of motherhood quite crushing at times.

Just put dd to bed. Sometimes I just feel that I'm trapped in a hideous life and that motherhood is so hard because I can't do what I want. I don't know why I'm on this downer tbh.

I have no words of wisdom but feel the same lately.

I feel like I'm failing at everything and just don't know what I want to be doing or how to get where I want to be.

I'm sure someone will come along with some advice. Thanks
