Am I being pathetic?

[tobebebebe]

I feel very very stressed out. I can attribute this to a few things

1. I have a 21mo DS who is currently cutting his last molars, so he's a nightmare - waking early (5ish) and not napping well.

1. My husband has just started a new job after being made redundant in July - new job is less money, more hours and a 1.5h bus journey each way, so he is out of the house 6am, back 6.30pm.

1. I work Mon/Tues and then on Fri my workplace expect me to work from home, even though I explained to them I have DS and cannot possibly do this their attitude is 'do what you can' this is a big stress as its often not til naptime that I get round to doing anything.

1. We were supposed to move out of our rental house in August, but because of complicated delays we are still here, its shit - damp and tiny and dark and it gets me down every single day. No idea when we will be moving, but our tenancy runs out Jan 2nd and they are selling the place after that. No idea what we will do.

1. I have a bunch of health concerns at the moment, including possible perimenopause and hashimotos disease. So thats fun, and I feel SO TIRED.

1. The poor dog is making me feel so guilty for not walking her yet today, as its bucketing it down.

I just feel like I need a break. Welcome to my pity party.

it sounds like a tough day/week/period.
Make sure you see the doctor.
I cant offer anything but gin and a hug!

Nope. That is quite a lot to have on your plate. It will get better though.

No wonder.

No you are not being pathetic. That is relentless. Can you escape anywhere warm and cosy? I had some good sure start groups near me and a nice indoor play area. You need to get out that house as much as possible and sometimes the little, seemingly small comforts add up.
