Anyone else just find everything so overwhelming they just want to hide or runaway?
Answered 5 years ago
I was trying to get a job done first thing this morning & the kids just wouldn't leave me alone so I couldn't get it done. I ended up in the shower crying because it's the only place nobody can physically get to me. I wanted to go for a run just to get away but i couldn't leave them alone. What do other people do when it gets to this point? I'm sure there other stress related factors in my life at play here too.

I always think about running away but I can't leave the kids and if I have to take them with me I might as well stay home ☺️ in all honesty I think every mum gets overwhelmed. Try to give yourself some love and relax

If our behaviours are escalating (getting angry at each other etc) we go outside to play. Everyone is instantly better. Otherwise I'll put a movie on, or get some toys out that have been packed away for a while. Or distract them with a pack of tiny teddy biscuits. Gives me enough time to pack the dishwasher or put on some washing.

Sending lots of love, I have been there. Put a movie on, or let the kids play outside, sit down and have a tea/coffee and relax. Have an easy day, do as little as possible, but you need to let yourself relax and enjoy the day. Consider it an annual leave day. Dinner is a freezer meal or time spaghetti. If you have jobs you must do, wait until the kids are in bed tonight.
Hope you feel better soon.
