I'm new and my daughter's behavior has pushed me into therapy.

[QUOTE="MuniMama, post: 166514, member: 5416"] Thank you all for replying to my post. I feel like I have found some people who really understand me. One of my biggest problems has been people (mainly my husband and my mother) criticizing my parenting style. I feel completely run down and undermined emotionally. They keep saying that I get to angry with our daughter and have no patience. They think that her behavior is normal and is just terrible twos. It is useless to try and talk to them and I feel like I can't parent because they are always interfering and thinking that I am doing a poor job of dealing with her temper or that I'm being to harsh. The combination of all of these things has proceeded to just ruin me. In response to your questions about the antidepressants and therapists, yes I have been on anti depressants (cymbalta and lexapro) and I don't think they've helped me, just made me feel stupid. I am going to a therapist this Friday and I am hoping that talking to a third party will help validate my feelings. As far as the questions about my daughter, she has absolutely no speech or neurological problems. As a matter of fact she is absolutely advanced in all aspects of her development. The only issue is her defiance and uncontrolable violent outbursts. I thought that when I had my baby parenting would be joyous and rewarding. I now find myself in a nightmare for which I feel everybody is blaming me for. [/QUOTE]
