Struggling with being a mother. I just can't cope anymore!

I am doing an awful job of being a mum & have totally failed somewhere.
Both my boys push me with their behaviour, especially my youngest son, who I feel I am losing control over.
Right now I feel I need them to go to another room, just so I can have time to calm myself, but know that's unfair.
I feel so run down with everything right now & like I should not have had children.

Don't know why I am posting this, but needed to get it off my chest & am too ashamed to admit to anyone in RL that I'm not coping great atm.
