To be so fed up with life and overwhelmed and tired or do I just need to get a grip?

It all started 3 weeks ago, our 16mo had a cough, I told nursery, he had to get tested got back in the next day.

On Monday of the following week he got very poorly, his temperature started to spike (beyond 41 degrees) went to A&E eventually for better a week later.

The following week his nursery shuts down due to an outbreak.

I haven't been to get out much. My employers have told me that I should work part time but even then it's impossible.

Yesterday my smear test results came back and they're positive.

I lost my cool over no cereal left. I've been crying and shouting and screaming all day.
My DP is no help and his boss refuses to get any time off so he can help me (but he's ok with forloughing him for his other children and home school them when needed).

I literally have no help at all. I'm expected to look after the house and a screaming baby and work. Even my dog can't make me smile. My cat is asking for food and to top it all I got somehow some sort of needle pricking my finger randomly. I'm just so done with life.

Also forgot to add my car had no battery and my toilet broke down last week.

Well at least I had an honest conversation with my DP in all the different ways he's failed me.

Ooh. How did that go?

He's never denied any of it, but I made it very clear how I'm the one who at least emotionally is always giving more and when I need his support its very wishy washy at best.
