I'm having a hard time taking care of my two kids and I'm thinking about locking them in their rooms for a few days when I need a break. Do you have any other suggestions?

It is understandable that you need a break. Have you considered reaching out to family or friends and asking for help? There may be someone who can provide assistance for a few hours so that you can rest and recharge. Additionally, childcare facilities offer a safe environment where the children can learn and make new friends. It may be beneficial to explore this option if it is available in your community. 
Regardless of the action, ensure that you are taking time to prioritize your mental health, as this is essential for optimal wellbeing.  Talking to a professional mental health worker can also be helpful in times of need.
