Is it normal to feel like this?

So I go to bed anxious like I'm suffocating knowing there's only a few more hours to go until I have to wake up at the crack of dawn and start all over again.... start the process of hanging on for dear life to try not to have a mental breakdown..

At the moment I'm struggling to be a mum. I feel like I'm sinking and drowning and there's no escape.
I love my son so much... I have only positive feelings towards him but simply feel like I'm fighting a losing battle all the time.
I feel awful because Iv been feeling like I wish I wasn't a mum ... like I wish I could go back to having no responsibilities.
And then a get a rush of doom. But then I look at my boy and I'm full of love.

Please help? What's going on?
