Let me start off by saying that I'm sure my life isn't as stressful as some of yours, as sadly my DH and I have no DC (not through choice), I'm a middle leader in an international school. I'm out of the house from 6.45- 6pm most days, sometimes later. DH has an even busier job and is usually out of the house from 6.30-7.30pm. I cook most evenings, as I get home earlier, and DH does some cooking at weekends. We are lucky enough to have a cleaner who comes twice a week, so the only housework we do is washing up and light day to day cleaning of surfaces etc.
My issue is that I can't seem to relax. I am constantly getting emails from parents and senior leaders at work- fur example, it's 10.30 on Saturday morning here and I have already had 2 emails from the head and one from a parent. I am also constantly thinking about the next thing I need to do - work or home related. I can't ever seem to sit on the sofa and fully relax, IYSWIM. I also don't sleep well. I have recently got an apple watch and it tells me I am sleeping usually between 4 and 5 hours a night, and that the quality of my sleep is poor.
My question is, is this just normal life, or should I be worried? I sometimes feel very overwhelmed and as though everything is getting on top of me - but maybe I just need to woman up?! Any advice appreciated!
