[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 kids, 3 and 6. I love them deeply but parenting them is breaking me. They both have some extra needs but mostly it's the constant whining and crying and inflexibility and needing to do everything for them every second of every day that is making me lose my sh*t. Their ages make them dependent, I get it. But also my 6yo is so stubborn about being "alone" that he fights doing basic things on his own, like get his school clothes. They interrupt all my private time. DP is extremely involved so it's not like I'm doing it all on my own. They feel the same way. I feel like I am forcing myself to enjoy something I wanted so desperately. I have a therapist and I've tried multiple antidepressants. It feels wrong that I have to medicate myself to enjoy my kids. When they're not here, I'm fine. I don't know what else to do.[/quote]
