Sometimes overwhelm doesn’t look like worry.
It can look like snapping at the people you love. Or frustration that feels like it comes from nowhere. Irritation that feels disproportionate. Maybe you even feel on edge, but you’re not sure why.
Sound familiar, mums?
Overwhelm is nervous system activation. When your system is already running at full capacity, there’s no buffer left. One tiny thing becomes the catalyst 🔥
There’s nothing wrong with you. Your body is doing exactly what it needs to do, to regulate you again.
Butttt, it doesn’t mean we have to use those regulation strategies long term. You can create new ones 💚
