Anxiety and kids

I have 5 kids and I feel like I am failing them. This makes my already prominent anxiety worse. I try my best but often feel it is not good enough for them. I often end up yelling I have even hit my oldest son when we got into a screaming match (trust me I know just how freaking terrible this is, I dont need judgement I need someone to talk to). I get so overwhelmed somedays i wish i knew the trigger so that I could avoid it. I havent felt this low in a couple of week.

@nenee87 Hi there, glad you are here and reaching out. That alone speaks volumes about you. It seems to me that a good parent would be the type of parent that would realize the things you have and come here for support? I understand how difficult this is for you. There is a spot out here that also focuses on families, just in case you weren't aware of that spot too, and just in case that might be helpful, here is that link https://www.7cups.com/home/familyandcaregivers/ there is also some really quality guides out here: https://www.7cups.com/online-parenting-course/ & https://www.7cups.com/anxiety-help/

We are here for you! Sending you good vibes 🤗
