Lonely

I find it hard being a stay at home mum. I’m feeling really alone lately, when my sons at nursery I’m just at home , now it’s getting darker at night as well, I hate it. I’m worried I’m getting desperate because of lack of friends or interaction with anyone.

Hey you’re not alone. I understand how you feel as I hate it when my wee one is at nursery as I miss her so much but I know she’s having amazing fun ❤️ Feel free to message me anytime xx

@Lou thanks feeling down lately 😔.

When I feel alone, I listen to the bible Psalms has good verses, sometimes I just honestly lay down and cry it all out, crying somehow releases pressure and it makes my heart feel lighter. But you are not the only one, all moms have those dark moments and that’s the demon playing tricks in your head.

Omg you are SO lucky to have your son at nursery!!!!!!! That is a LIFESAVER. Girl, go you! You have the time and space for yourself. Eff the idea of friends for now- at least you get to take a hot bath.

If he is at nursery find part time job? That helps sometime.

Hi incog! I’m sorry. It really can be so isolating! I’m a super extrovert, and a super extrovert mom of 6 gave me this advice: See at least one friend once a minimum of once a week. Somehow! Could be at the park, could be going for a walk, get coffee, ask her to come over (“Sorry my house is a mess, but I’m so grateful to get to talk to you!”) I can attest that this SAVED my brain!!!! And it has helped me develop friendships so much better!!! My social life is thriving after doing this for two years now. Seriously. I didn’t have a lot of friends before, and definitely not mom friends, but this little weekly thing really helped me. It gets you to ask for that random mom you hit it off with at the grocery store’s number. It gets you to let others into your everyday chaos, which actually builds trust and familiarity. It gets you out of the house. It helps you get one on one time, which builds friendship. Just so many things

Obviously I’m not always successful at doing this every week, but no one’s counting or getting you in trouble 😆 It’s just a mental health thing I hope that idea helps!

Honestly message me anytime. Hope you’re ok ❤️ x
