I’m ready to find my way back to the world . What do you do for self care? Any suggestions or comments ✨

I have absolutely lost all desire to do anything other than sit with my baby. I can’t remember what I enjoy and I would rather play wjth my son than watch tv with my partner etc. this is my first baby. Is it normal to feel like this?

I’ve been suffering with anxiety and been off work and now I just feel like work is just being off and not happy. But surely my health comes first right? Or am I being naive?

Everything feels like it's on top of me. Also, I feel like i can't confide in anyone as I've got to be mum and push through. Which I am. It's just hard at the moment.. i dont think this time of year helps either. A lot of pressures and stress. Any advice or tips on how to get out of this funk?

Anyone else finding that new motherhood seems to be the fastest way to alienate childless friends or lose friendships through changing priorities? Baby is not quite 4 weeks old and several friends have texted in the last few days complaining I either don’t have time for them, don’t text back, or sound insincere whe...

I don't have any friends. We moved to a new city two years ago and I still have not found any friends and the previous friendships fizzled out due to distance. I feel like I really tried, especially since having my little boy. I met up with a few women from this app and went to multiple baby groups, and even though ...

My little ones 3 months old and we have no baby friends. We live in a secluded area & a lot of mothers here are a lot older than me, I’m mid 20s and they’re late 30s / 40s with no interest in me or my baby and believe me, I’ve really tried hard. I feel so bad that my baby has no friends and I have no mum friends,...

My understanding this morning. I'm not thrilled but I'm also not sad.

Plea...

I'm really struggling this week. I cant stand any of my clothes I have, the way I look, my hair my face, my body. I just feel completely lost in who I am right now. Every picture I see of myself I scrutinise recently too. My life is so busy with 4 kids at home , 2 are my step children who are with us 50% and I'm jus...

What mental illness would cause someone to be supportive when times are good then when you hit a bump in the road in life they do anything to try to break you down mentally? Like hit way below the belt? Or is this just secret animosity?

I’m struggling so hard. I don’t know who I am…. I’ve been a mom since I was 17… outside of being a mom and a wife I really don’t know who the hell I am…. I don’t even know what I like anymore… I feel so broken and damaged and unfixable…. I just really don’t wanna be here anymore…

A. Make it a non-negotiable priority B. Fit it in when I can C. Forget it exists D. What's self-care?

I feel INTENSE happiness and peacefulness.
