I 100% relate to this. I have been living in a steady state of overwhelm and underwhelm. I feel triggered by the sound of footsteps coming towards whatever room I am sleeping (escaping to) in at night. Do my kids need one more kiss goodnight, to tell me one more story from their day, to complain about something the other did to them 3 years ago? Or is it my husband coming for some physical affection? None of those things should feel triggering! But they do because it all seems to be too much.

Thank you for that article, I feel seen.
