If you’re feeling down and discouraged in your role as a SAHM, you’re not alone. What a clinical psychologist wants you to know:
If you’re a mom who stays home to care for your kids, you know that full-time parenting can take a toll on your well-being, no matter how much you love your kids. The work itself is emotionally demanding, and you might sense that society undervalues maternal care compared to having a career. You may be socially isolated, as well.
While many of the factors that can lead to SAHM depression are outside your control , your thoughts are one important area where you can make a difference. With practice, you can retrain your mind with thoughts that serve you better. In reality, motherhood is an important role that doesn’t entirely define you. You were a person and a woman before you were a mom, and it’s easy to lose other parts of yourself in the unending demands and expectations of being a SAHM. Look for ways to reconnect with life-giving activities that are a part of your true self.A related belief is that you shouldn’t have spells of feeling down, even depressed.
