[quote=Anonymous]I feel exactly the same Guys! It’s been so so hard but I’m trying to take it day by day. Just to throw out some positivity, here is what I’m doing to fight feelings of gloom:

Exercising every day for at least 30 minutes
Drinking half my body weight in ounces of water every day
Trying to eat some thing healthy within an hour of waking up otherwise my mood gets dark
Making myself a cup of tea and eating dark chocolate every afternoon
Cleaning out one closet or set of drawers per week
Making kids donate at least one toy per week
Having a daily hourly schedule for the kids that they get to have the satisfaction of checking off
Limiting their screen time to when I need a break only, for me it’s morning and dinner hour
Making screen time disappear if their behavior goes downhill
Not worrying about cleaning the house or laundry until the weekend when my husband can help with the kids

This has been working for me and keeping the feelings of depression at bay so far. I realize summer will be more challenging, but every day is a fresh start so just keep trying to implement something healthy. My kids seeing me get down in the dumps creates for an overall negative mood in our house. My goal every day is to fake it till you make it.
