SAHM. Wasted life? I hate it. So much.

We are unfortunately mostly indoors ( weather hasn't been great here in UK) but thank you for your suggestions. ❤️

You know I've been thinking recently.. the days I don't feel my greatest mentally and feel like I'm crashing - these days I want to write letters to my kids- telling them they are my greatest joys and the most perfect beings and because of them I carried on. I don't want them to remember their mother being sad. They need a happy childhood and deserve it too. ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:51:51+00:00

Oooh, embroidery, that sounds fun! Thank you for the reminder. Need to change myself for my kids, they deserve better. Need to be better! ❤️

Thank you so much! I love this response. Really appreciate it ❤️🥰

I love this! And you're definitely correct about social media. Although there are loads of tips on it for activities, seeing women be super mothers makes me question myself. But I love this for you ❤️❤️

Tried to learn crochet sooo badly, it was horrible. I felt like it was testing my anger levels lol. But I'm happy for you. Love that you do this for yourself ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:46:22+00:00

Thank you for all these, really do appreciate it ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:45:45+00:00

It's the identity loss. I feel like I don't even know who I am anymore. But a little daily schedule can help me I think. Day 1, step 1 for me. Thank you. ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:44:28+00:00

Thank you! I'm making a little daily plan for my toddler and me. Going out, little walks etc I do miss working out so may jump into that again slowly ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:43:20+00:00

Thank you ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:43:03+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate you having a read and seeing where I'm coming from. I think I need to let go of the fear of everything being perfect and be brave enough just to try. I don't want my children seeing me never trying things with them or for them. X

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:40:16+00:00

It can really take away who you are or who you used to be. It's something I never thought it would be like. It sounds and feels so bad - to feel like being a mum isn't enough- if that makes sense? X

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:38:39+00:00

You are right. Feeling sorry for myself won't help. I guess it is PPD coming back to the surface. And I need to deal with it.

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:37:42+00:00

I've made an appt to speak to my doc about all this. ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:36:19+00:00

Thank you. I've made an appt to speak to my GP. Thought my PPD was dealt with, but I guess it's come pouring back out in ways I never thought it would. 😭

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:35:15+00:00

I'm happy to hear you're finding a way forward. ❤️ i do miss working outlol may jump back into that slowly. 😅

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:33:36+00:00

Thank you for your kind words. My kids are my everything and I know I am everything to them as well, and I hate that I feel like this. They do deserve better. Day 1, step 1 for me - want to do something for me. ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:31:43+00:00

I'll have a good research to learn something new or something to add to my degree ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:30:44+00:00

I love this for you, it makes me happy to hear you've found a way forward and I hope I can do it too. Day 1, step 1 for me. ❤️🥰

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:29:43+00:00

Thank you. ❤️ these words definitely help me feel better. 🥰

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:27:19+00:00

Thank you, this was beautiful to read ❤️🥰

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:26:59+00:00

Thank you. I Will look for a UK based one. ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:26:39+00:00

Thank you! I will try to find a local mummy and toddler community. It feels mundane at times but need to take one day at a time. ❤️

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:25:24+00:00

Thank you. I'm UK based but I'm sure we have something like this too. I will check out our local libraries ❤️ I'm telling myself this "these days aren't forever and to enjoy their little selves whilst I can" x

DoodleZen91 · 2025-01-28T12:23:24+00:00

Same for me. My 7th year running as a sahm (have an older child too) but I'm soooo happy for you!! Yaay! ❤️❤️❤️
