You’re tired (understatement of the century).
There’s at least one kid sucking all the life and energy out of you.
And despite knowing you need help, figuring out what that actually looks like, and how to get it feels heavy and hopeless, which only fuels the shame.
‘This should be easier, what’s wrong with me?’
‘Everyone else is coping, I should be able to get through this on my own’
Our current medical system has failed us when it comes to maternal mental health. The lack of education and awareness is responsible for the various thoughts above of insecurity, guilt, shame and unworthiness so many of us feel in our motherhood journey.
I’ve personally thought and am constantly hearing comments like:
“I’m so anxious.”
“I’m so tired.”
“I had a miscarriage and I feel so alone.”
“Waiting and trying to get pregnant is excruciating.”
“Breastfeeding is impossible.”
“I have no idea how to make this baby stop crying.”
“I think I need to see a therapist, but what type is right for me? Where do I start?”
“I have a therapist, but they’re not a mom, and I’m not sure they really get me/what I’m going through.”
