[quote=Anonymous]OP, sending you hope and sympathy. You sound unhappy and overwhelmed. For me part of breaking out of that cycle in all parts of my life was learning about healthy boundaries and how to enforce them. You will feel better when you can tell other people what you need and when you can stand your ground on issues that are important to you. There’s a lot of self help out there, but few great alternatives to going to therapy and doing the work. A lot of the “flowery,” cheerful moms have more space in their lives to nurture in that way. It’s easier to be warm and creative when your emotional needs are met and when labor feels fairly divided in a household.[/quote]
