I run my own business, with a business partner. Been running it 3 years; it's hard work but we're doing OK. For some reason, yesterday I just broke down. I don't feel I can do it any more. I have 2 small kids, I work most evenings, my parents are I
ill, I have exzema and I am constantly stressed & angry. There's never enough time or budget for jobs that come in and I feel sick of under delivering. I am a perfectionist and got a lot of well paid work as a freelancer because I'm really good at what I do. But I'm not good now. I can't do a good job and the stress is awful.
I thought I could tough it out until things got easier. We've just won a load of work, taken on staff but instead of feeling relieved I just want to run away. I can't. But instead of getting anything done today I've just looked at my to do list and felt overwhelmed. Am I having some sort of breakdown? Should I just pack it in, and lose everything I've sacrificed 3 years of my life for?
