Toddler never happy, what have I done wrong

[xXwhenwillitendXx]

Just that really, 18 months and seems to hate life. Screaming or crying constantly, only happy when held and being taken from room to room. I can't even go to the toilet without the screaming.
It's getting me down now, she climbs all over the furniture and runs across it, tries to climb the book case / sideboard, so can't leave her in any room unattended, not that I could anyway as as soon as I stand up she screams and wants to be carried around. I can't clean / cook or even shower as she will just scream at me (an error piercing noise)
I've stopped driving as she constantly screams in the car to the point I now feel its dangerous as I get distracted.
I've stopped going groups as she screams when she doesn't get what she wants and it's just so embarrassing as all the other toddlers are nice and calm.
Funny thing is, she's lovely for anyone else, Childminder and MIL always say she's a lively one (nothing holds her attention for more then 2 minutes) but she's good as gold.
What am I doing so wrong that she's like it for me.
I'm burnt out!!!

It’s super exhausting, I’d say can you get yourself a regular break, through an extra afternoon with the childminder or even just organising for your partner to have her a couple of hours on weekends afternoons while you go to bed for a chill. It does feel a lot more manageable when you’ve had a break

I'm working weekends atm so he has her then anyway. It just seems like either I have her and he is working or he has her when I'm working, or Childminder has her when we are both working. Neither of us have any family willing to have her.
I love her to bits but the constant screaming and launching herself off high furniture is really wearing thin now.

I think what is called ‘the terrible twos’ starts at 18 months. It doesn’t stay awful for the whole duration, but the behaviour changes and it can be really challenging to deal with.

My son was a climber at that age and watching him was a nightmare! You have all my sympathy.

When do they grow out of it??

Some toddlers are just little climbing whirlwinds and it is super wearing as you can never relax with them and they need your constant attention. If there is anyway can book some extra childcare so you can get a break it is well worth it. She’ll more than likely grow out of this phase but in the meantime just a good routine with a planned activity a day, ideally a walk in the morning too and make sure she has a snack between breakfast and lunch and between lunch and dinner. They do gradually get easier from around 3-4 and much easier by 5

@xXwhenwillitendXx just came across this post as I have the same situation with my almost two year old. Literally just wants to be picked up and carried from room to room. Did it get easier for you?
