Every mom has them — and no, I’m not talking about your collection of ketchup packets in your glove compartment. We keep them close to the chest, we don’t often speak of them out loud, and sometimes we have to physically shake our heads and go “AHHHH” just to get them out of our heads: our confessions. Whether they’re big or small, life-changing or incredibly mundane, every mom has a few she’s thinking throughout the day. Things like purposely not picking up your husband’s favorite shower gel because you secretly hate the smell. Or lying to your best friend about the new DIY Instagram trend she tried on her backsplash that looks truly awful. Or pretending like you don’t remember throwing away your kid’s 8,000th piece of art from school.
But then we have some deeper ones, too. Some we’ll never share with anyone — except maybe our therapist… and the Scary Mommy Confessions. So read on for the latest confessions of moms just like you who need to let it out today.
Scary Mommy Confessions are a tried-and-true part of what makes our site so fun. If you want to anonymously confess, look for our weekly callouts on Instagram. And to browse past Confessions, head here.
