I just need to vent & for some strange reason the people here are like way less judgemental than any other platform knock on wood. But im a single 28y/o . I’ve got an 8yr old girl, and a soon to be 2 year old boy. Lately my son has been driving me literally INSANE. Not to mention the fact that I work from home. It’s like I never get a break EVER. Like not even 2secs of silence. I keep my 1 year old home from daycare because of my fear that something will happen to him I can’t control. Like there’s been so many reports of kids getting injured or dying in daycare and I’m terrified. But it’s starting to drain my mental health drastically . And alter my personality. Like this morning I found myself feeling resentful to him because it’s like dude just be quiet for like 30 mins. ANYTHING. He goes to sleep at 2am. He climbs EVERYTHING. And the days I do have days off are spent cleaning up my house. So I work 8hr shifts and the entire time I’m either trying to keep the kids quiet, or I’m running back and forth to make sure my son doesn’t climb on his tv stand. What do I DO???? I have no social life what so EVER. I’m usually always cranky because I’m sleeep deprived so I snap at any little thing. Not to mention I suffer from anxiety and depression. Slap that on & we’ve got a whammy. Plus my job sprang on me that I’m now switching to 4 day work weeks with 11 hr shifts. So that’s great. More stress . No help from dad . Spoke to him about 2 weeks ago. Was supposed to get my son for the weekend because he “missed him” and never showed. I’ve completely given up hope of even asking. And I’m scared I’m going to eventually lose my WFH job because of the noise or my tendency to snap.
