I hate being a mom
My baby is 7 months old and I hate being her mom. I feel sad almost all the time. It drives me nuts when she cries, which she does all the time. I am tired of trying to meet her needs. I thought motherhood would be a happy thing. But for me it is really effecting me badly. My health is getting bad. I have joint pains and muscle pains. I don't have anyone to help. I don't know what to do.

I think that the best thing we can do for our children is to allow them to do things for themselves, allow them to be strong, allow them to experience life on their own terms, allow them to take the subway... let them be better people, let them believe more in themselves.
C. JoyBell C.
Sometimes when you pick up your child you can feel the map of your own bones beneath your hands, or smell the scent of your skin in the nape of his neck. This is the most extraordinary thing about motherhood - finding a piece of yourself separate and apart that all the same you could not live without.

Hi... It is completely natural to feel overwhelmed at times while taking care of a 7 months old baby alone.
You might also be suffering from postpartum depression which may require professional help.
Please seek consultation from a doctor (physician/gynaecologist) for joint/muscle pain.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist.
CBT along with Motivational Counselling and Lifestyle Guidance is required.

Hello
I can understand your problem. Being a mother is not a easy thing especially without any support. You will face some stress in this situation. So try to avoid too much stress. When you get time practice some relaxation technique, it will help to calm you and get some support from your family. Take some rest.
Dont worry, everything will be alright.
