Big breath, don't rush a response and know that what you are feeling is normal, nothing wrong with you and it will pass

I’m dealing with it pretty aggressively. I’m in counseling and just upped my medication. It sucks, but know you aren’t alone. I’m trying to really just take a second to be calm before reacting; easier said than done..

You’re not alone! I suffer with it poorly. I do my absolute best to walk away, take deep breaths & even cry it out. It’s definitely okay for you to feel all of these emotions building up. Just remember you are in control of your emotions, they are not in control of you. Whatever it is that triggers it is only temporary & you will find a routine that works best for you & your little one(s). Take it one step at a time. Proud of you for doing your best love. Be easy on yourself. Much love!

It was really bad 4-9 months pp but still shows up frequently at 14 months pp. It’s been rough. I usually end up losing it and going in the other room to cry. I’ve been trying to take more deep breaths and my husband and I came up with a code word we could use whenever we get so angry we’re about to burst that let’s the other one know to stop talking/arguing and let them leave to calm down
