That's it really.
I just feel really low. No motivation. I know what is 'logical' and 'reasonable' but feel neither makes a difference to my mentality.
I wanted to take DD to an art class this afternoon just to get out of the house but i lost my keys and then broke down in tears. I felt angry and was swearing and stomping around like that would make a difference. I went upstairs and this scream came out of me i don't know where from... now we have missed the class and she's sitting there watching Dora i just spent a weekend away with a bunch of hens and realise i am not very likeable. I am not interesting. i miss me. I used to be funny and vibrant and happy. Intelligent... Pretty.
Now i have a million nervous ticks (blinking, exhaling while holding my breath several times, tapping my teeth in an 'even' pattern).
I feel like life is just one big depressing cycle. Get up, get dressed, try to give daughter life enriching experiences so that i don't feel guilty for ignoring her because sometimes i find her whining so overwhelming. Making sure i run the house because that's my job now. Life revolves aroubd wht to make for lunch/dinner. Is this it? What's the point? It takes forever to get out of the house and then i sit on my own in a cafe watching other mums looking like a loser. it's hard to make friends now. I love my daughter to the moon but I don't feel like i am being the mum i wanted to be or thought i would be.
