vee on repeat

Maybe more mothers are carrying this feeling than anyone realizes. 🥀

I thought motherhood would make me tired.

I wasn’t prepared for how much I would miss myself.

For a long time, I thought that made me a bad mom.

Maybe that’s why so many mothers carry these thoughts in silence.

If this felt a little too familiar, you’re probably not the only one. 🥀

Some thoughts only stop feeling shameful once another mother says them first. 🥀

Maybe the hardest part of motherhood burnout is realizing how much guilt can grow from being tired, not from being a bad mom. 🥀

I thought I missed my old life.

Turns out, I just missed having easier access to myself. 🥀

I thought I was just adjusting to motherhood.

I didn’t realize I was slowly disappearing from my own daily life. 🥀

Toddler motherhood can feel so loud emotionally in ways nobody really prepares you for. 🥀

I think a lot of mothers secretly grieve themselves while being deeply grateful for their children at the same time. 🥀

Motherhood changed the way I see other moms completely.

Some motherhood feelings are harder to admit than the exhaustion itself. 🥀
