As a mother I find that I am overstimulated just about every day. That it truly is a struggle everyday to hide it, to not explode. And while I believe I am managing my overstimulated reactions, I can’t help but wonder how many other women feel this way?

For example, I wanted to scream earlier today. My newborn was screaming at my breast, my four year old was pulling at my shirt while saying “mom” over and over and over. The cold air was hitting my nipple, my hair was tickling my face, the TV was on, my husband had the air fryer going, and he was watching tiktok loudly on his phone. All of these stimulations made me want to snap! 😮‍💨

Anyone else feel like this?

I have a weird feeling it’s more common than I think.
