I’m struggling to cope lately, I have an 8,7 and 3 year old.. my eldest two got there moment s but my 3 year old is pushing me over the edge.. I was so close to calling social on myself because I can’t deal with his behaviour anymore.. I seriously think he’s got some behaviour problem.. I’ve never known a child like it.. we have kittens Andy he’s so evil towards them.. im forever raising my voice or sitting him in time out.. he laughs and tells me he hates me and doesn’t love me anymore, I honestly feel I’ve failed as a mother.. or I’m doing something wrong.. life’s one big mess since my ex left us nearly 2 years ago next month.. he sees them but I’m the only one who has them, only time I get a break is a Saturday night, during week I’m the one putting them to bed giving baths doing homework.. and I feel drained from it all.. I don’t know what to do anymore :’(

Have you spoken to anyone about how you feel, op? Family or friends? I think making an appointment with your doctor would be a good idea.

I’ve spoken to my family and friends but not very supportive, I’m going to make an appointment tomorrow to be seen, feeling ok today x

I'm happy to hear you are feeling ok today and making an appointment. Reaching out and asking for help is perfectly normal and a great first step in the right direction. Take care x
