Hi, feel so low and have done for a few months. Got so many things going on in my life and feel as though i'm on a treadmill.
My partner has suffered from depression so knows what its like but i cant tell him "i am suffering from depression". think he will think it is an excuse, pathetic, why am i etc. i tried to explain how i felt last night and it all came out wrong. Basically we have kids and both work full time , i work from home. There are lots of other things going on too.
Looking after elderly father and all his affairs, extention to the house and working more hours to help partner so all the work emphasis isnt on him.
I struggle as i do every thing at home (apart from him sometimes doing dishwasher) its really getting me down.
He doesnt seem to realise how hard i work and how little time i have to myself.
This is all so hard to write as it is obvioulsly more complex and not as simple as it seems.
Why cant he SEE how i feel. Been together for years and on the whole things tick over nicley.
Just feel like i am always doing everything for him and he is so disorganised and always loosing things. If i need help with something i usually have to ask and ask.
I feel so incredibly anxious at the moment too about everything.
My mind needs the cobwebs cleared.
Please give me some advice.
