Understanding the unique challenges of motherhood

Mothers often find it challenging to balance day-to-day life and overlook the need for self-care. Not just profound joy but feeling a variety of other emotions along with an array of experiences can create challenges and may lead to mental health issues. Juggling work, household chores and meeting everyone’s needs is no easy feat. So, moms choose to keep their mental health concerns to themselves.

Recognizing the signs of mental health concerns

In pursuit of happiness for the family, mothers often neglect their well-being. Mental health disorders can be seen as early as during pregnancy. Around 10% of pregnant women in the world reportedly face such challenges. Here are some signs and symptoms that you can experience:

Symptoms of anxiety and depression

Anxiety and depression symptoms can be subtle or misinterpreted. Symptoms of anxiety may include sleeplessness, excessive sweating, phobias, panic, digestive issues and social withdrawal. Depression may manifest as lack of concentration, hopelessness, poor sleep, fatigue, feelings of self-harm, guilt, weight loss and loss of appetite.

Feeling overwhelmed and difficulty coping

Balancing work and chores while excelling as a mother can overwhelm you. You may feel trapped and alone as if you have no support from friends and family. You may feel you need to do more when you are already doing your best!

Changes in appetite or sleep patterns

The pressure to keep everything under control can lead to changes in appetite. You may feel starving with no time to eat or have all the time but no appetite. This contributes to poor sleep and detriments mental health.

Here are some mental health tips that you can utilize to ease your life:

Making time for activities you enjoy

A bad mood can lessen your interest in your favorite pastimes and activities. Overcome this lack of interest and engage in what makes you happy. Go for a movie, meet your friends, and enjoy solitude with tea and a book. You deserve every bit of it!

Prioritizing sleep and relaxation techniques

Relaxation and good sleep are essential for happiness. Practice meditation and other relaxation techniques, and go for a swim or a spa session. The more you relax, the lower your stress levels will be. No matter what, do not compromise your sleep. Try to sleep for enough hours without distractions.
