Real talk from a mom on TikTok: "I'm just frustrated and upset but I'll be okay"

We're not certain how some mothers do it, but having help and support is such an integral part of mothering. 

It stands to reason why that saying, 'It takes a village to raise a child', is so true. 

But the thing is not all mothers have support or help. And that can be extremely strenuous on one's mental state of mind.

This is why it is so important to check in on people. You never really know what someone is going through. 

For one mother, who has a TikTok account and shares fun content with her baby boy Ezekiel, it was all about sharing an honest outlook on her state of mental health. 

Haylee, the mother, posted a video sharing how she was struggling over the past few weeks because Ezekiel cries a lot, and it was becoming difficult for her to deal with that.

As mothers, we are programmed to want our children to always be okay. Therefore, it physically hurts when we hear our children cry. 

But the reality is that they are going to cry and soothing them is part of our job, but it doesn't mean we are failing. 

And that is a reality that many mothers have to acknowledge. 

We really appreciate Haylee's honest video about not dealing, because as a society we tend to cover up the bad days, and that's not healthy.
