Any moms on here have depression are anxiety if so what are some things that make you feel better when you're down.
For me I made a group on Facebook its called stay positive and I post positive things and other people can to. Just makes me feel better seeing happy stuff. But it sucks that I don't feel happy don't know why.
I think about all the loving things I say to my baby and I imagine God saying those same things to me.
It's so cliche but when I feel it coming on I can just look at my babygirl and it helps a lot. She calms my storm
I have GAD, I'm on meds for it. Nothing ever seemed to help otherwise.
I'm also currently dealing with PPD. It was exasperated by the fact that my baby girl was born 7 weeks early and spent 21 days in the NICU.
Every day is a struggle to be happy. But my husband is a saint and keeps my spirits up. It also helps that my baby girl, Olivia, is home and we are all settling into a routine.
What helps (besides meds) is swimming; but I can't do that at the moment.
If I'm in the middle of a panic attack I take a shower, but sit in the tub and let the water fall on me. Must be the mermaid in me, but water always makes me feel better.
Yeah i like funny memes when i get down... just try to find something to laugh at...
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Things I never thought I'd say...
Until I became a mom:
Yes our kids are a blessing and I do look at my son and smile because he is always happy and laughing it's the best. Some days are good some days are bad but I'm never giving up on being happy just have to remember tomorrow is another day. And I have people who care and love me even when I feel alone. Being around positive and happy people really help me. If Im around negative people are if I hear something negative I start to think to much and it makes me sad. But I'm working on not caring about what others think of me and say.
