I feel sad, overwhelmed, angry, exhausted and sometimes don’t want to do anything at all.
Is this okay, or do I maybe need to see a therapist?
While it is hard to tell you exactly whether you may need to start therapy, I can tell you what the experts advise, and what I myself experienced.
How did I know it was time to reach out for help from a professional counselor?
What are the signs it might be time for you to try therapy as well?
Also, what is the difference between talking to a therapist and just talking to your friends?
Isn’t venting with friends enough?
Answer?
No.

Be sure to join the private Parents Who group if you want to really start moving away from the things about motherhood that drive you crazy and move towards the things that make you feel more peaceful and happy (i.e. alone time!)
There is weekly, free personal training in the Facebook group that I don’t include anywhere else.
Plus, a community of moms just like you who won’t judge, and will even encourage!
I also post a lot of behind the scenes photos and daily motivations over on Instagram that you won’t find here. Hop over there and follow me!
