I have two kids also... ages almost 3 and almost 1 year old. I cannot cope sometimes. I just snip and growl at them, and it is soooo NOT how I want to parent. Especially when my 3 yr old is now talking to me through her teeth (teeth clenched like I do sometimes...) (ie. "get your seatbelts on..." and by the 2nd or 3rd time I'm clenching my teeth feeling the anxiety flow). I went off Effexor (not on purpose, just ran out) and I'm feel soooo overwhelmed again. So frustrated with all the little things. And now, the tears are coming back too... and all those bad momma feelings. I have been so positive lately... even through packing and moving to our new home. But now I can't even enjoy it! So, I can relate to the two little kids at home and dealing with them 24/7. Where do you call for a break??? 1-800-GRANDMA doesn't work in our area.
