Recognize Your Anger & Stop Being An Angry Mom

Do you remember the day you delivered the baby? The time when you became mom for the first time? Do you remember those overwhelming moments filled with love and joy? Of course, yes. Unfortunately, people don’t allow moms to feel bad, to feel angry and sad. You are blessed to have kids, right? So you don’t have any right to be angry mom. But the reality is, moms, do get angry. They carry around frustration, stress, postnatal depression, guilt, and a lot more feelings.

Just recall the time before your kids and compare the differences you feel. You were a happy and all time smiling girl but now you are an angry mom who gets up in a bad mood and goes to bad with a guilt and sadness in her heart.

Do you know a lot of moms struggle with this same situation but everyone put on the best face in the public? Every happy mom might have a hidden story going on she might not tell you. So don’t expect perfection when you are a mother. All mothers are imperfectly perfect.

There would be a lot of things that may be bothering you. A heavy crowd while dropping kids off school may annoy you and ruin your mood for the entire day. A wrongly brewed coffee may be the reason. Your health, your child’s health or any close friend going through some difficult situation may also make you sad and frustrated. Kids are not behaving well and you get ashamed of their behavior at an event could be another reason. It could be anything that may trigger the anger in your mind. Accept it that we all have weak moments. But what can you do about it?

You can stop being an angry mom and be a happy mom instead. But the first step towards being happy is to accept that you are really an angry mom and you need to be happy. Sometimes we can get frustrated with our children because they annoy us, but it taps into our thoughts and emotions because we reflect their behaviour on ourselves, and on our child’s future.

If we start blaming ourselves for our kids “bad behavior,” or start to feel embarrassed abou their behavior, then our emotions will escalate. And if we start thinking that our child won’t ever learn to behave properly in the public, and that their future is being ruined by what they are doing, or any other thoughts like that, then our emotions are going to escalate.

We will start to feel so desperate for the behavior to just stop that we end up getting very angry and trying by all means necessary to stop their bad behavior.
