[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Help me re-set.  I had off for 2 weeks for winter break so kept the kids out of daycare so we could see family.  Figured everybody would be back in school/daycare on Monday but of course the storm has hit and we are all stuck inside together.  It is giving me flashbacks from lockdown in March 2020.  I was in a horrible place and was screaming at my kids non-stop and needed to go on meds and start therapy.  How do I not go back down that deep dark rabbit hole?  I am working full time, as is my husband, and we have 3 kids at home who are sick and tired of being together.  It is non-stop yelling.  I feel horrible. [/quote]

So is everyone else in this area and, yet, somehow we manage.  I suggest you get your act together as you are an adult and, as such, step up and take care of the curve balls life throws at us WITHOUT COMPLAINING.  You and your husband are employed, have ample money, the necessities and, probably, a great many of the luxuries the world has to offer.  I am so sick of people like you and your incessant whining and complaining.[/quote]

So apparently this is this person‘s way of mitigating  their stress. being a deep deep deep a hole online. Awesome. Really hope they don’t have children. [/quote]

Except for where I worry about OP taking these idiots seriously, it's kind of funny to observe the total lack of introspection from people like the PP. The unintentional irony is quite something.[/quote]

+2 Pro tip: people who actually are thriving don’t need to repeatedly shout I’M THRIVING on anonymous websites.

OP, I started a daily meditation habit as a way to stop yelling at my kids, way back in May 2020.  I’m still shocked at how well it works, at least for me.  Ideally I’d do two ten minute meditations daily (one am, one pm), but even one daily or two five minute meditations helps a ton.  [/quote]

OP this PP here is wise!  [/quote]
