Help me change my mindset/ outlook as a parent to 2 young children
I’m feeling… hopeless. I don’t have anything to look forward to and I can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have a very high-needs 3-year-old and a 3-month-old with reflux. I live in a foreign country and I don’t have a village. I don’t get breaks. My body is breaking.
I don’t want practical advice like how to burp my baby, I want to hear your mantras and meditations if you’re a parent in the trenches. What do you repeat to yourself when the kids are driving you crazy or you feel you have nothing else to give? TIA
