Feel like I'm just about coping

And I don't know why.

I have a few issues and problems but no more than anyone else but I feel like I'm on the edge and could snap at any moment.

DH lost his job and is looking for another.
We have an expensive time coming up and need a new boiler so need him to get another job soon.
Work is pretty stressful and negative and I'm having to do extra hours at the moment. My boss is on my case and being passive aggressive.
Christmas obviously is imminent and I'm not organised.

I know it's not extraordinary but I feel so hassled and stressed out like I can't keep on top of things.

Can anyone relate or help?

Oh dear, OP, that all sounds pretty stressful to me! Flowers

Some things you cannot change by worrying about them, so try not to. Your DH is looking for another job, so keep positive. In the meantime, can he take over on the Christmas-organising front? This will take the pressure off you and you can focus a bit on work, which sounds like an area you need to regain control of.

I feel not very in control (it's the time of year for it I think) and I have none of that going on!

Hi OP
I'm sorry to hear that your having a hard time. Is it possible you have an Anxiety Issue?

Some times all the little things add up and your worrying about things that you don't even realize. When I feel like you I sit down and make 2 lists. One of the things bothering me that I can change and one with a list of things I can't and take it from there Smile Be kind to yourself and remember that your doing great!
