I'm finding the balancing act between work and the viruses coming home from crèche impossible this year. This is our second year of it and I feel really down after going through another week of sickness and a busy week work wise.
Where I work is quite understaffed and mismanaged so I have no cover when I am off so work piles up and I get pulled up if deadlines aren't met. I just feel so guilty that my toddler is so upset being left every morning and picking up all of these bugs. Maybe it would be different if I wanted to work and liked my job but I just want to spend more time with him.
Does everyone feel like this? Just feel totally burned out, it's just my husband and I and crèche we don't have much help from family. I suffered from PND and I am on medication, I often feel very down but I'm not sure if it's because of this situation or not.

I'm sorry you're feeling so down. Have you had any kind of therapy alongside the medication?
