Hi it's been a long time
I need help, I'm a SAHM to 3 kids married. Idk but lately I've felt like my hormones are all crazy and one minute I'm happy the next I'm mad. Poor Hubby has to deal with it. Like,last night I was laying in bed and he comes lays down and throws a big pillow on top of me (I was watching a movie so I got annoyed) tjen he rolls over and says hes going to bed. Ignoring the fact that he needs to remove the big pillow from on top of me. Then this morning I go to the gym while he stays home with the kids and when I get home the kids haven't had breakfast but had a juicebox.early in the morning. So I get mad at that and ge gets ever more mad and now he's not talking to me. I realized I overreacted at the juicebox thing but I immediately apologized for it. I feel like lately we've been getting mad at each other for the smallest things, maybe its just me. I try not to but ut gets me. Idk why?? anny suggestions?Thank you for reading.
Re: Hi it's been a long time
Are you taking care of yourself? Make sure you're getting enough sleep, eating well, exercising regularly, etc. Date night with your H? Even if it's just 15 minutes after the kids are in bed and you turn off the TV, computer, cell phones, and just talk.
Could it be depression? Maybe talk to your doctor
Manage your expectations. H isn't a stay at home dad. He's going to do things differently than you.
Start and appreciation journal. Every day write down one thing that you appreciate about your husband.
Have you read 5 Love Languages?
He's probably just as frustrated as you are. Talk to him!
