Just wondering if there is anyone in the same boat and if its a post partum thing I just feel so unattractive atm. My body is bigger than i have ever been, breastfeeding has me at the same weight when i gave birth, none of my pre pregnancy clothes fit me and i hate how all new clothes i try look on me, when i put m...

Sorry this is just so all over the place but I feel so lost. I don’t think I really realised how isolating having a baby would be. like being pregnant was so hard because I’m a young mum-17 when I found out, 18 now- and I was so social, out a lot seeing friends or getting upto whatever, I was also drinking a lot &...

My husband is going to go hunting today and I’m pretty anxious about being home with my 18 days old. I’m afraid to feel so lonely.

I’m a single mum of two beautiful children, I only have one close friend and the other friend I use to have has just all of a sudden started to ignore me without any explanation. I have had my second child three weeks ago and I haven’t gotten any visits by anyone except my neighbour and family. My friend was suppose...

I just feel like I’m really struggling as a mum at the moment . My lo is nearly 5 months and sleeping is all over the place, I’m not going to bed until 3am and then today up again at 8, my lo only naps on me in the day I just have no space no time to myself the dad does nothing barely anything to help I feel lonely...

I wish I had someone that I can talk to. I feel so alone in this world. Nobody but God and my kids is all I have. I wish I had ginuene people around me that really love and understand me. That can be there to give me that support 😔😢

My hearts hurting. I had a close friend since I was 12 and we grew up together. She’s now pregnant as well as I am and I would’ve thought we would’ve been on this journey together and it just seems like she doesn’t even want me in her life anymore. I feel like I have no one. I just want true valuable friends. I feel...

I feel alone! I currently have two under 3s with minimal support. Feel since having children I feel chained. I can’t go anywhere or seen anyone without being the children which is clearly a friendships killer as the 1st to have children in friendship group. I don’t feel like myself I can’t seem to make time for anyt...

Feeling sad and jealous that my motherhood journey so far is what feels the majority of the time alone. When I see my friends that have kids they have their family around for help and company and I just feel like they are having such a different experience to me. My husband works long hours and so most of the time ...

How do you feel about therapy?

I am a procrastinator and i hate it . Im working on it though

Today has been a hard day. My mom died 18 years ago today and I was really sad. My husband saw me crying and in a condescending tone said I’m sorry you’re so miserable. He knows every year around this is hard for me but he’s been being an ass b/c the last couple of weeks I haven’t been in the mood to have sex but he...

I don’t really know where to start. The doctors said I needed some talking therapy but I’m not good at talking face to face. I’ve always been a up and down kind of person, but since loosing my nan 3 years ago everything has gone out the window. I was angry all the time and I wouldn’t take it out on everyone else. T...

It feels like I’m the only parent to my daughter. I feel like a maid. Im just hurting bad

Am I the only one who constantly checks the backseat when I finally go somewhere without the kids? Like somehow they snuck in and I didn’t know or maybe in my postpartum brain fog, I strapped one of the kids in and forgot and oops there they are when I come out of the store!! Like I finally get to be alone and also ...

I am currently pregnant with my 2nd child. I have a 21 month old and having mum guilt on how he is going to feel when his sister arrives. This pregnancy is totally different to my last and feels so different I’m feeling guilt about that. Although I have a partner and he is brilliant I still feel pretty lonely. Can a...

Nobody told me how isolating and lonely pregnancy can be. Of course I have my boyfriend but it’s not quite the same as having people who have been/are going through it too.

I left my 9-5 job that I didn't like anymore (yet I had no choice but to leave because of my situation, to now owning my own business and being in college for the first time. I think I'm doing good but I feel like it can be better ❤️

I feel an immense need to go stay in a tiny cottage in the forest without a phone for a 30-day minimum. I only want to speak with animals and plants the entire time. But, alas, I am a mother, and young people need me. 💁🏻‍♀️😩 Seriously, though. I want to completely disconnect from everyone and everything. I need a…
