Asking for help
Asking for help used to feel like failure to me
Like I should be able to do it allLike needing a break made me a bad mom
But the truth is
I don’t need help because I’m weak
I need help because I’m human
Because sometimes I run out of patience
Sometimes I get overstimulated
Sometimes I just need a minute without someone touching me
And that doesn’t mean I love my kids any less
It means I’m showing up fully
And that takes rest
That takes support
That takes help
So if you’re the one doing everything
Carrying everyone
And breaking quietly in the background
You’re not weak
You’re just tired
And it’s okay to say
I need help
Even if you’ve never said it before
