If you have almost hit your breaking point come in

I am thisclose to losing my mind. The anxiety is enough to drive me crazy on most days. I never wanted a drink so badly in my life. If only I smoked cigarettes I feel that everything would be alright in the world - lol. I imagine the relief on people's faces who smoke. Maybe I should start now LMAO!

I AM LOSING MY MIND! Even this post is making me sound like a crazy person LOL.

I know I am not alone - so please come in and tell me that! Chat Icon

You are NOT alone

I'm on 2.5 hours sleep, commuted 1.5 hours this morning and have a work event tonight.

I may drink myselft to selep at my desk.


ETA: 2.5 hours sleep because my 2 yo woke up beckoning me at 230AM that he wanted to watch TV Chat Icon

When I say beckoning, I mean screaming TOP of his lungs, MAMA - TV

He gets home around 6:30 - 7 and he's great about playing with the kids - but you know how it is, I have to clean the house, fold the laundry, last night I was at Stop and Shop until 10pm.

It's ironic that there aren't enough hours in the day - but yet some days I feel are neverending Chat Icon

I am lucky in that the tantrums haven't been as torturous lately, it's really just craziness surrounding Tyler. He puts everything in his mouth. He's a complete daredevil. He runs - but isn't 1000% steady on his feet yet. It's just a big old mess here somedays!Chat Icon

OMG I'm losing. I really think I'm going to start smoking again just so I can hide somewhere and smoke LOL. I think that is the reason I originally started smoking, so I could get work breaks. I have to tell you, my boss back then had NOTHING on Nina.

MY GOD - I say the same thing about my abusive boss. Working for him was like a day in Disney, looking back now.

These kids are hard work. They are Nonstop. Into everything. Pee. Poop. Blood. Food. Falling. Yelling. Crying. Just a few things that take place here every hour or so. Chat Icon

Yes, this is how I feel all day long with Tyler. I can't turn my back for a second. If I do the kid is diving face first eating dog food. It has gotten to the point where James just lets him eat it now Chat Icon Chat Icon Jack is obsessed with puzzles, and Tyler is obsessed with eating them. Can you only imagine my fun on a daily basis? Chat Icon

Re: If you have almost hit your breaking point come in

Oh yes I felt like that every single day for the first 8 weeks of her life!
I kept thinking- what the heck did we do?
I really thought I was going to lose my mind or end up in mental hospital.
There were days I didn't shower, didn't get dressed. It was bad.
And that was with just one.
Can't imagine with two!

I'm embarrased to say that I look forward to coming to work some days.
Because it's quiet here... quiet compared to a screaming baby that is!

I need to add that I drink. Daily.

Re: If you have almost hit your breaking point come in

And just for the record, DH and I actually quit smoking as of yesterday. And thank God Luca started school yesterday, because if I had both of them to myself all day long and I couldn't smoke, I might hang myself off the deck.

Re: If you have almost hit your breaking point come in

Ugh yes. DD has been such a handful the last 2 weeks. IDK what's going on.

She went from not sleeping, to the best sleeper, to sleeping worse than before. Her naps are non-existant AGAIN Chat Icon and all she does is whine and whine all day.
Driving home earlier today she cried blood curdling screams for 20 mins. She was choking and gagging she was crying so hard. I brought her in he house to give her a bottle and put her down for a nap. she just cried, drank then was wide awakeChat Icon

I think she's napped a total of 1 hr in the last 3 daysChat Icon Chat Icon
So naturally i get no work done

Re: If you have almost hit your breaking point come in

Yes-I feel your pain.

My 2 year old was sick for several days, fever and miserable. I felt so bad that there was little I could do to make him feel better. He started preschool today and cried when we dropped him off. The teacher said he calmed down and did great- but it was draining to see him so upset.

My 4 month old cut a tooth and has another one on the way. When he is awake, he is miserable and crying no matter what we do.

DH smokes and I am jealous. I quit 5 years ago. I told him I should get smoke breaks even though I no longer smoke. I have anxiety a lot of days.Chat Icon Chat Icon

Me! Me!

I haven't smoked in 10 yrs yet there are days I would give anything for a cigarette!!!!

Right now, my living room and kitchen look like they have been ransacked!!!!!!

And my DH is never home before the kids go to bed. The rare night he is home before 9pm I run out the second he gets home! I am a regular at Kohls and Target at 10pm b/c nowhere else is open! LOL

Just before I was going to crazy I put the babies in their cribs and told DS I was going in my room for a time out!!!

Re: If you have almost hit your breaking point come in

You're definitely not alone. Between Ben's 3 year old temper tantrums and Ethan thinking he can walk on air (climbs on the couch, stands up, walks to the edge and KEEPS GOING!), I really do think a nice padded room would do wonders for my state of mind sometimes. Chat Icon
