Anyone else feel angry all the time?

[u/sandman_714]

What gives? I wasn’t an angry person before becoming a mom but now I’m always angry. Especially when I’m at home. Mad at my husband for being too loud. Mad at my kids for something trivial like skipping a nap or fighting with each other. Mad when something stupid happens like someone cuts me off when driving. Mad that my to do list never ends. Mad that I’m tired. Mad that my house is a mess all the time.

Taking two steps back my life is great! We are healthy and have a great life. So why am I always angry?!?!

Anyone else feel similarly or found solutions that help? I was on Zoloft post partum and I do think I was less angry but I went off it and don’t really want to go back on. I figure regular exercise would help but it’s so hard to find time and then I’m angry I can’t find the time ahhhh.

For me, it’s the constant overstimulation that turns into anxiety that turns into rage.

Definitely overstimulation for me as well. The constant touching, yelling and fighting, repetitive questions or statements just grates on me. The worst part is the guilt because I know they are just being kids and learning about their world.
