I dont have friends, no one that I can just simple hangout with they, this motherhood thing is killing me and I feel that…

Anyone else?

Was best friends with another mom I met through here for almost a year. She was my twin. I felt like we were soul tied and meant for each other. Talked all day everyday.

Mental health

How do you stay mentally grounded? How do you stop overthinking? How do you stay in reality? How do you stop deep day dreaming or role playing fake scenarios? How do you be present in the moment and forget the past and look forward to the future?

What should I do

What can I do or should I do? My daughter has told me she feels lonely? I try my best I’m always with her she does go to daycare because I work a 9 to 5 and her dad isn’t around or minds her.
