Matrescence emotional toll

been away for a bit. just learned about matrescence and i’m kinda blown away. it’s like, this whole transition to motherhood is not just physical, but emotional and identity-wise too.

i’m 7 months pp now and still trying to wrap my head around it all. i feel like i’m losing myself in the process of becoming a mom. does anyone else feel like they’re just drifting through, trying to figure out who they are now?

like, i know i’m not alone in this, but it’s hard to put into words. how do you cope with the emotional toll of matrescence?
