I'm not depressed, more exhausted by the treadmill of life, and feel like I am going under.
I have 3 children, a part time job (three days a week), elderly parents, my dad has the start of alzeimers. Trying to juggle it all is wearing me out, and the final straw was going to work today.
There are only two of us there at the moment, my team leader and me. She was in London, and it was so manic, phonecalls, people wanting to talk to me, urgent work, and work that has been ignored so long deadline has passed and had to be done today, plus query from top boss which had to be answered.
I've come home, I'm stressed, shaking, and just started to cry in front of my ds1 when he said he didn't want lasagne for tea.
I'm worried that if the pressure doesn't ease somehow, I'm going to have a breakdown. I have been thinking about seeing gp and asking for a few weeks off, just feel I need a break.
