Mental Breakdown...

Hi guys-

Well... I have been feeling like I was going to just about lose the past week or so and last night it finally happened. I just feel to me knees and balled my eyes out. I am a stay at home mommy and my husband works alot.. I have two children to care for under the age of 3 and I am havent been able to recover since getting home from hospital.

I am thankful that god gives me the strength to get out of bed every morning and that I am able to sleep, but I cant do everything!!! I am going from 6am-pm every night. I just feel like maybe these heart palps I am having are stress related. I am so scared that this stress is going to kill me!!

I feel that my spirit has just floated off somewhere and I cant get it back. I feel like I have lost myself.

I'm sorry I'm such a poop today, but I needed to share with someone.

MK

I know what you mean!!  I have 2 kids and I really struggle in the morning to get their teeth brushed, comb their hair, get them dressed, feed them breakfast.  I work part-time as a dental assistant and my husband is an accountant(tax season really burned me out).  It is so hard to keep up especially when you don't feel well.  
I don't feel like myself anymore either and I didn't know if it was thyroid related or if I am depressed.  I just don't feel like myself anymore and it scares me at times.  I have my good days and bad days.
Hopefully this is just a normal thing to being a mom.  
This too shall pass, everyday is a new day.

Also, I am not thinking that this is the medication making me feel like this. I just feel extremely overwhelmed with no help! Its hard going through this being alone most of the day with two kids...
