  1. Being a single mom with a disability, and no support, is extremely difficult 😢 especially when you're family knows and still doesn't help. I feel very alone and everyday I'm overwhelmed. It's is severely depressing.

  2. As a mother, I've had to be far more social than I would ever have wanted. To me that's the #1 worst thing about it. So I don't think that's the problem. The problem, is that we are now expected to work plus look after kids. Work is 90% of my life. Looking after my kids is 90% of my life. Add it together and it's 180%. See a problem here? Could it be, is it possible, that women are unhappy because they are literally run ragged, and can't afford help?

  3. Yeah society has been brainwashed and the nuclear family destroyed, by planned parenthood and feminism, explains everything shes talking about. And explains what all these woman in the comments are feeling as well.

  4. Sometimes i feel miserable and stressed and tired and judged and i compare myself with working moms and think they are better than me. I've started a journey of intentional motherhood and i believe the first thing i need to do is deal with myself first as a person, love myself so that i may be able to extend the love to my family

  5. It’s a blessing but it’s exhausting. We put ourselves last always. Maybe that’s why I call my mom everyday because I feel alone. Praying or all the mommas out there!

  6. The lack of support is a huge thing. What I would give for someone to just stop by randomly with a healthy meal, or to be able to trust someone alone with thr kids and not be taking a million photos of them posting it all over the place.

  7. "We all need a witness."
    Finally I can put into words the feeling has been haunting me for the past 2,5 years. I never could put it into words. I tried to explain to my husband how I felt unappreciated, unnoticed. I felt that I was asking for too much. Now it makes sense ❤

  8. Im really unhappy in my life, all of my goals, dreams & ambitions have gone down the drain…
    I feel really upset & sleep deprived most of the time, unable to even then have energy to do anything…
    The lack of support is just on a whole other level…
    I dont think i will ever have anymore kids…
    Motherhood is not what i thought & i feel like its not for me, regardless of being told im a great mother.
    And yes, i dont even have time to see any of my friends or even do anything.
    I wish someone had told me all of this… Never have i ever been so stressed financially, emotionally, physically, mentally & above all, so disconnected from myself spiritually

  9. I'm not lonely at all, I'm a natural introvert. But I still just hate being a mom it sucks. I always say if I could die and be reincarnated I would come back as a man
