Feeling like other mums cope better than you? 💔
Constantly feeling overwhelmed and burnt out? Like 98% of your day is spent in a bad mood?
Me too. You’re not alone.
Overstimulation feels like a trap. But here are three tips that can help:
1. Take micro breaks🌸
Even 30 seconds of deep breathing counts. Hide in the bathroom if you need to. It’s not selfish - it’s survival.
2. Lower the bar 📉
Dinner can be toast. The house can be messy. Perfect doesn’t exist, and that’s okay.
3. Find your quiet moment 🤫
Early morning tea. Late night bath. Car time after school pickup. Protect these tiny pockets of peace like your life depends on it.
Other mums aren’t coping better. They’re just not sharing their hard moments on social media.
You’re doing an amazing job, even when it doesn’t feel like it. Especially then.
